Portico di Romagna,
Where Time Stands Still

Portico di Romagna arose along the ancient road leading to Florence, already famous in Roman times as a place of markets and later as a castle belonging to the Counts Guidi of Dovadola.

Since 1386, the Florentine Republic chose Portico as the capital of its Romagna territories.

The village largely retains its medieval appearance, divided into three levels: the upper part with the castle and the parish church; the middle part with the noble palaces from the 13th and 14th centuries that hosted noble families from Romagna and Tuscany seeking refuge due to political conflicts; and finally, the lower part with the houses of artisans and the common people.

The Church of the Compagnia houses a wooden painting attributed to the painter Lorenzo di Credi (1465-1537).

The view of the village from the Ponte della Maestà, with its humpbacked profile and single arch over the Montone River, is splendid.
