5 Unmissable Experiences in the Wounded Yet Tenacious Heart of the Marche
Muccia, a small village in the Marche region marked by the 2016 earthquake, today stands as a place of rebirth and authenticity. Its territory is rich in spirituality, from the Hermitage of Beato Rizzerio to rural sanctuaries and historic churches, some still awaiting restoration. The landscapes of the Sibillini Mountains, accessible via well-marked hiking trails, offer immersive experiences in nature.
On the gastronomic front, local excellence such as Varnelli liqueurs, salumi from Salumificio Bartolazzi, and artisanal pasta “Terra di Muccia” tell a story of taste and resilience. The village’s agricultural and noble past comes alive at the Mulino Da Varano and the refined Villa La Maddalena, enriched by historical ties to Bernini.
Muccia looks to the future with the new school donated by the Bocelli Foundation and the upcoming camper area, while also celebrating the beauty of nearby lakes like Fiastra and Polverina.
A visit to Muccia is more than just a trip: it is an act of solidarity, an encounter with the tenacity of a community that resists and rises again.
