Urbino is one of the most important centre of the Italian Renaissance, and it still preserves a huge artistic and historic heritage. For this reason, in 1998, the town of Urbino has declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The symbol of this artistic heritage is the Ducal Palace, which hosts the National Gallery of the Marche. Another important artistic element is the Casa Santi, which was Raphael’s birthplace, and the Urbino Cathedral which was rebuilt in a neoclassical style. Among religious buildings, there are the Saint Francis Convent built in the XIII century. Urbino has been the set for many movies, an example is The Mandrake. In this movie, the historic centre of Urbino is clearly recognizable.
