70 km from Nautilus Family Hotel, a land of rich historical and oenological culture.
Jesi is the main town in the Vallesina valley and its city walls, which have been fully preserved to this day, are proof of its historical prestige.
Jesi is the birthplace of several important personalities, from Emperor Frederick II of Swabia, to whom the Federico II Stupor Mundi Museum in Palazzo Ghislieri is dedicated, to the famous musician Giambattista Pergolesi, to whom the famous Pergolesi Theatre is dedicated.
The territory is characterised by the complex of historic villages that rise on the hills surrounding the Vallesina: they are the eighteen "Castles of Jesi".
One of these, Maiolati Spontini, was the birthplace of Gaspare Spontini and today boasts a dedicated museum. Cupramontana, on the other hand, is well known to wine lovers as it is the historical capital of Verdicchio, one of the most famous DOC wines of the Marche region.
In fact, one of the largest indigenous grape varieties in Italy is found in this area. In addition to Verdicchio, the DOC wine Lacrima di Morro D'Alba and the DOCG wine Verdicchio Castelli di Jesi Riserva are produced here.
