Penne: The City of Brick

Wander through Penne, uniquely constructed almost entirely from historic terracotta bricks, earning it the title "City of Brick."

Penne is a fascinating medieval town distinguished by its pervasive use of handmade terracotta bricks, giving the entire historic center a warm, reddish glow. Recognized as one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, it sits on four hills offering views that transition smoothly from the Apennines to the sea.
