Let’s start this itinerary from the Town
Hall (1), set in Piazza
Roosevelt, from here, it’s possible, by crossing Via Ferri
and Via della Resistenza to reach Piazza
della Repubblica (2), also known as “Arena
della Regina”, it’s of modern style and is also where
the Theatre and the Multirole Cultural Centre with library as
well as the post office are to be found. The Arena della Regina
houses international shows and exhibitions.
Walking down Via Petrarca, you reach Piazza
de Curtis (3), here the weekly market is held every
Saturday, a favourite with locals and tourists. From here you can
reach the
harbour (4), lively centre of the fishing industry
in Cattolica.
Continuing towards the town centre, from the promenade
we can admire the beach
(5) with its fine, golden sand and the well organised establishments.
The town has been awarded with the pretigious blue flag many times
for its clear, clean and safe sea.
Next stop is Piazza
1° Maggio (6), renowned for its musical fountains,
which every evening at 10 p.m. during the summer entertains the many tourists gathered
in the piazza. The symbol of the town, the Mermaid Fountain, can
be admired from the middle of the square. The fountains, moving
to the rhythm of the music with their brightly coloured lights and
the gardens make this square the main meeting point and the ideal
venue for souvenir photos.
Walking up Via
Bovio and Mancini (7), which are a “must”
for shopping addicts, you reach the Piazza
Mercato (8), full of shops and where many open-air
events take place, such as the market run by children, concerts
held by new musical groups, the summer dancing lessons. The conferences
and meetings held by the Civic University are held in the tiny theatre
“Snaporaz” to be found at the far end of the square.
Moving on, turning left, we reach the
Church of San Pio (9), patron saint of Cattolica, or
turning right, the smaller church of Saint Apollinare. Opposite
the smaller church is the Malatestian Fortress and the Museum
of the Regina (10).
We now find ourselves in Via Pascoli, or the “old
part of Cattolica”, rich in history and tradition.
In the summer, weekly antique markets are held during the evening.
At the end of this street, walking towards Via Fiume and the sea,
we reach Via
Carducci and Via Dante (11), the two main streets during
the summer season; full of shops, hotels, pizza houses – a
sort of “up-market” bazaar where you can shop or just
enjoy a pause in one of the many bars and restaurants. Via Dante
is a pedestrian zone area!!
At the far end of Viale Carducci, the last stop on our itinerary,
is Cattolica's Aquarium,
Le Navi (12). Here the sea turns into real live, with
lots of aquariums, the special tank full of frightening sharks and
where it’s possible to actually touch and stroke the fish,
fun entertainment for all the family!
