San Marino is one of the oldest republics in the world. The small state in the south-west of the Italian province of Emilia-Romagna also has a distinctive fortress heritage, some of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Guaita, Cesta and Montale fortresses on the ridge of Monte Titano also adorn the coat of arms of the proud republic.

The new cooperation with FORTE CULTURA is being organised together with the San Marino Ministries of Economy and Culture to strengthen fortress tourism in the region.
