According to an ancient legend, it is said that Filottrano was founded by the Lombard prince Ottrano: the name of the town is the synthesis of Mons Philiorum Optrani, or the "mountain of the sons of Ottrano". The first certain sources on the existence of a small fortified village date back to 1187. In the heart of the historic center, the town hall stands out with its civic tower. Walking through the streets of Filottrano, you can perceive the medieval atmosphere of the town. Famous for its sartorial tradition, it even houses the sewing machine museum.

This dirt path never strays far from the Musone River as it runs alongside the vast fields of the hills. The landscape is shrouded in greenery, except in summer, when the yellow ink of sunflowers fills this beautiful painting of nature.

The Musone originates in the municipality of Gagliole, at around 775 meters above sea level, from the convergence of two valleys and continues eastwards to flow into the Adriatic Sea a few kilometers away. In Latin times, it was known as Misco; during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the stretch of the river near the confluence with the Aspio marked the border between the Republic of Ancona and the Marca Fermana. At this point, the river can generally be crossed without difficulty.

A beautiful medieval town. Filottrano is also sadly known for being the town of the great cyclist Scarponi, winner of the 2011 Giro d'Italia and who died in the streets of his town due to an accident.

At Capocavallo there was initially a small church where, towards the end of the 19th century, a miracle took place. In fact, it seems that a painting depicting the Madonna began to sweat tears and moved her eyes, after these events the church was considerably enlarged and embellished.

Walking through the streets of Filottrano you can breathe the medieval atmosphere of the town. It is the city of tailoring, so much so that there is the sewing machine museum.
