| Ancona, founded 2400 years ago, owes its origins to the ancient civilizations grown around its natural harbour. It lives stretched out towards the sea and is embraced by Conero’s promontory. Ancona is Marche’s chief town, the centre of the Adriatic coast, a Region constituted by hills, boroughs of art and vanguards of the Italian style, exported all around the world. With its 100000 habitants, Ancona is an active and productive city, full of historical sites and cultural events. The city is also located at the centre of dense networks of contacts and interesting places: from the extraordinary Frasassi Caves to Urbino, one of the many World Heritage Sites protected by UNESCO. From the sporting point of view, Ancona is rich of sports centers, so much so that is among the top five cities of the Country, for rate of sportsmanship: in fact there isn’t a better place to keep fit, to train and to compete. For all these reasons, the FIDAL (Federazione Italiana di Atletica Leggera-Athletics Italian Federation) decided to build here the most important structure indoor at a national level: the Palaindoor, inaugurated in 2005; since then it’s the headquarter of several Italian Championships and, in 2009, of the European Indoor Master Championships. Thanks to the European Championships that took place in 2009 the project, Ancona EMACI 2016, was born. It is a sport event for everyone that unites efficiency in the organisation, quality of our welcoming and the opportunity to discover a city and a region where it is possible to practise any kind of sport and to grow at a cultural level. |

The city offers a large landscape of its two thousands years of history, always through the Adriatic sea and its cultures: the roman route from the Arch of Trajan to the amphitheatre; the Ancona’s medieval period with the Saint Ciriaco’s cathedral that dominates the Guasco hill, the Loggia dei Mercanti (Merchants’ Lodge) and other buildings; the modern and contemporary city grown around its harbour: from the Mole Vanvitelliana to the forts that surround the city and to the parks that enter in the heart of the town. The surroundings of Ancona and of Marche offer a wide choice of excursions and trips. Some examples are: The Mount Conero Park, in the south of the city, that is a protected area where land and sea meet; Offagna, Recanati and Montefano, that are historical boroughs castled on Marche’s hill; The Basilica della Santa Casa (Basilica of the Holy House) of Loreto, that is one of the most important Christian shrines; The Frasassi Caves, the biggest European hypogeum complex, with 30km of routes |
