Born as a small agricultural settlement and a refuge for hermits, Polverigi developed after the year 1000 with the construction of its ancient medieval castle. Today, only the entrance arch remains, while the towers, walls, and battlements have been incorporated into the village houses, becoming an integral part of the historic center.
Polverigi is an ideal destination for those who, while on holiday on the Conero Riviera, wish to take a break and immerse themselves in the Marche countryside, among gentle landscapes, traditions, and tranquility.
The cultural heart of the town is Villa Nappi, a splendid 18th-century villa surrounded by a centuries-old park. Today it is an international meeting place for artists, dancers, and performers thanks to artistic residencies and numerous events held throughout the year. Villa Nappi has become a landmark for contemporary creation, where art and nature blend in a unique atmosphere.
If you happen to be in Polverigi in September, don’t miss the event "The Night of the Witches,"
which has now become a cult festival.
On the occasion of Halloween, the streets of the village come alive with witches, ghosts,
fortune tellers, and mysterious creatures.
With shows, entertainment, and chilling settings, the town transforms into a magical
and unforgettable place for one night, capable of enchanting both adults and children.
Polverigi is a perfect place for those seeking authentic experiences, culture, and popular traditions, all immersed in the quiet of the Marche hills.
