Cacciano, the Village of Murals
Just a few kilometers from the center of Fabriano lies Cacciano, a small and picturesque hamlet known as the “village of murals“.

These giant artworks portray rural life, local faces, and scenes of nature, turning the entire village into a colorful, open-air, and Instagrammable museum perfect for a relaxing walk.
