Villino Ruggeri

Highlight • Monument

Villino Ruggeri is one of the most extraordinary examples of Art Nouveau architecture in Italy. It was built between 1902 and 1907 on the idea of the owner, the dynamic pharmaceutical and ceramic industrialist Oreste Ruggeri. Born in Urbino, he moved to Pesaro after the great success of his products, especially the "glomeruli" against anemia, presented with an innovative advertising hype. The direction of the works was entrusted to the Urbino architect Giuseppe Brega, who specially designed the furnishings, decorations and external facings. Everything in the cottage must have brought back that typical taste, so popular in Europe at the time, which had made the Gesamtkunstwerk its bulwark.

The structure stands in a large garden which before the war was enriched with colorful flowerbeds, a glass greenhouse, an iron gazebo and a majolica seat; today the large circular fountain remains, decorated with large lobsters. Despite the very serious losses of the war period, what still characterizes the building is a very rich relief decoration in hydraulic cement, with marine and floral subjects that are repeated on the walls, shelves and under the eaves. Inside, the furniture from the dining room and the glass door between the entrance and the living room survive. On the upper floor, the most preserved, friezes of leaves, fruit and flowers indicate the name of the rooms.

The building, located at number no. 1 in Piazzale della Libertà, was subjected to restrictions for buildings of monumental interest in 1962. The position facing the sea enhances it to the point that many visitors stop to admire it. Privately owned, it is not open to visitors.

Now a symbol of Pesaro, Arnaldo Pomodoro's Sphere Grande, also known as the "Pomodoro Ball", is a work of contemporary art full of charm. Owned by the Municipality of Pesaro, it was built in 1998 by the great sculptor on a polyester model made in 1967 for the Montreal Expo and from which the original was born which is today in Rome (in front of the main entrance of the Farnesina, headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs).

The imposing sphere rests on the surface of the water, in the center of the large infinity fountain in Piazza della Libertà, a factor that enhances its sphericity and aesthetic lightness. Obtained from a bronze casting, it has a diameter of 3.5 meters; inside there are three-dimensional geometric figures that recall a mechanism.

Sfera Grande by Arnaldo Pomodoro

Highlight • Monument

When you see it for the first time, you will probably stop in surprise - just like I did. The huge sphere that rises in the middle above the circular fountain basin and is reflected in the water makes the two elements into a wonderfully harmonious unit. The creator of the "Big Sphere" is the Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro (born 1926), whose works have been present not only in European countries but worldwide for decades, and who has already received numerous awards.

Highlight • Monument

The seaside cycle path is very wide and well lit.
It is certainly worth a walk, even at night.

Fano–Pesaro Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Nice bike path, but no way to get to the beach here.
Sandwiched between the railway and SS16.
