The Underground Caves of Osimo

Osimo preserves an extraordinary world beneath its streets. Accompanied by a speleologist, we explored the underground caves and discovered how this hidden space evolved from the Picene-Roman period to the Middle Ages, before serving as a refuge during the Second World War.

Exploring the underground caves means venturing into darkness. It is a rediscovery of humanity’s timeless relationship with nature, which has provided shelter, stored food, and brought people together for centuries.
