San Francesco by the Vomano

The church of San Francesco was built in 1934 at the request of Giovanni De Nardis in memory of his father Francesco. It stands near the bridge over the Vomano River. The name Francesco thus appears both in the name of the church and in the family history. At this location, San Francesco connects its construction in 1934 with the commemoration of Francesco. Its proximity to the bridge also establishes the church’s specific connection to the Vomano.

Cycling and Agricultural Topics

On July 20, 2024, the Ciclovia dell'Appennino Teramano – I Cammini della Transumanza was publicly presented at the Corte dei Tini in Villa Vomano. The Festa dell'Agricoltura was announced for Villa Vomano from May 1, 2026, to May 3, 2026. As part of this announced Festa dell'Agricoltura, the 2nd Interregional Exhibition of the Marchigiana cattle breed was also planned. The Ciclovia was presented in 2024, while the Festa was announced for 2026. The announced Festa period covers three calendar days. The Marchigiana exhibition was planned as part of the Festa and not as an additional date outside this period. Agriculture and the Marchigiana cattle breed thus form the specific topics of the planned exhibition section. For scheduling in Villa Vomano, the date of the Ciclovia presentation and the announced period of the Festa should be considered separately.
