Cagli (Pesaro province)

A town of the northern Marche: 43°33N 12°38.5E.   Altitude: 360 m   Population (2003): 9000
[image ALT: A large medieval stone tower, of an unusual oval shape. It is the Torrione of Calvi, a town in the Marche (central Italy).]

The 15c Torrione: the "big tower" of Cagli.

Cagli is a regional center on the Via Flaminia between Cantiano (10 km S) and Acqualagna (8 km N).

A proper website will eventually appear here: I've been to Cagli and walked the Flaminia in the area. For now though, you will find it useful to read my diary entries for the summer of 2000: Jul. 27 but mostly Aug. 9, which includes additional photos; for further, more complete information, see the sites linked in the navigation bar at the foot of the page.

As a first couple of steps toward that proper website:

[ 5/19/01: 1 page, 10 churches, 10 photos ]

Some of Cagli's churches: they're a surprisingly diverse and interesting group for what is after all a pretty remote town in the Apennines. Why does the main door to the church of S. Nicolò prominently feature a dog carrying a pair of candles? What is the real story of St. Gerontius, the goose, and the Via Flaminia? Stay tuned.

Also, a brief article on the town from the 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, from the pen of Thomas Ashby.

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.)
