PASSETTO CAVES

In Ancona there is a world of fishermen caves, close to the center.

Passetto caves were excavated in the early ‘900 by Ancona fishermen to create a shelter for the boats and from the summer hot. In this part of the Conero promontory the mountain is steep, so the caves were a providential refuge. During the decades the Passetto caves were handed down from father to son and they became during the years more livable.
