Pennabilli
Pennabilli is the highest town in the province of Rimini. Part of its territory lies inside the Sasso Simone e Simoncello nature park. It grew out of the union of two castles: the castle of Billi, above the crag, and that of Penna, above the rock. Its most notable citizen, by adoption, is the poet Tonino Guerra, who left Pennabilli the "Luoghi dell’Anima", the places of the soul, a scattered museum of sites open to the public that bear the marks of his genius.
