HISTORIC HOUSE IN SASSOFERRATO (MARCHE) The medieval historic complex dominates Sassoferrato, located on the top of a hill, surrounded by greenery and rocks. The prestigious abbey complex consists of the former monastery and the house. The complex is the subject of restoration and construction works, some of which have already been completed. It has 3,000 square meters of living space and a garden of 36,800 square meters. Most of the complex has been restored, and the foundations have been strengthened with the introduction of an anti-seismic system. The external walls have been completely renovated. A lower floor has been built, intended for technical and utility rooms, and is currently in the final stages of completion. Internal shafts for passenger and freight elevators have been prepared. The complex has a significant historical heritage. Built by the Counts Atti, lords of Sassoferrato, in the last years of the 12th century for the Camaldolese monks, it is one of the most important examples of Romanesque architecture in the region. Inside the abbey there is a valuable fresco by Pietro Paolo Agabiti and other frescoes from the fourteenth century.
