San Remo is the capital of the Riviera of Flowers and this can also be seen in its artistic and architectural style. The city is essentially Liberty (Art Nouveau) in style as its hotels, villas and casino clearly show. During the “Belle Epoque” period, San Remo experienced a moment of strong growth and refinement of housing: 190 villas and 25 hotels were built from 1874 to 1906.

Sanremo is the largest city in the Riviera of Flowers and therefore, in addition to having beautiful beaches, it also has a lot of more or less hidden things to see. In this city history prevails, culture and l ‘architecture.

The resort town of San Remo was an important social center around the 19th century and a popular resort until the middle of the 20th century, and much of the houses and hotels you can see in the town date from this period.

The town is in the Liguria region of Italy and one of the most westerly beaches in the country, not far from the border with France. It is properly called Sanremo although often referred to as San Remo.

Sanremo, or San Remo, is a city in Italy located in the province of Imperia, in the Liguria region.

Sanremo has approximately 55,000 inhabitants in 2020. In number of inhabitants, it is the fourth Ligurian municipality, after Genoa, La Spezia and Savona.

Sanremo is a tourist town, known in particular for the cultivation of flowers (every year a flower parade takes place, Sanremo in bloom, hence the nickname City of Flowers), for its Italian song festival, its car rally and its role as the finishing point of the Milan-Sanremo cycling race.

It is one of only four Italian cities to have a casino (along with Venice, Campione d’Italia and Saint-Vincent du Val d’Aoste).

HISTORICAL CENTER AND ITS PIGNE

The historic center of Sanremo is a visual witness to the ancient history of the city, founded in Roman times, the Villa Matuzia, then developed in medieval times in its characteristic form of Pigne as the fruit (name derived precisely from its resemblance to a pine cone) until arriving between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries at a City of the Season, that is to say a city with a fairly mild climate.
Since the end of the 19th century, its history and urban planning have expanded, seeing the emergence of Belle Epoque style structures, of which the Grand Hotel & Des Anglais is a part, becoming a tourist destination on the Grand Tour and welcoming many historical figures. and artists like Winston Churchil, Gabriele D’annunzio, Guglielmo Marconi, Alfred Nobel.

The site of Sanremo was inhabited very early in history, as evidenced by the remains of human settlements dating from the Paleolithic. It was in Roman times that the city began to develop significantly. It was founded along the Via Julia Augusta, probably so called by Caius Matutius, who had built a sumptuous villa around the ancient oppidum (near the current casino). Another interpretation refers to the deity of Asian origin Mater Matuta, goddess of the dawn, whose name would therefore have become Matutia then Villa Matutiæ.

Whatever its origin, it is nevertheless certain that after the conversion of the population to Catholicism by Saint Orsmida and the hermit Saint Romolo, in the ninth century the city was continually attacked by Saracen pirates, who forced the population to take refuge in the mountains.
