L’Aquila will fascinate you with its ancient traditions, its historic centre full of architectural buildings, its culture and by its hospitable people. Surrounded by the highest mountains of Appennines, L’Aquila shows the sights of its natural territory. This city was founded during the second half of the XIII century as a confederation of 99 little feuds, and this important historical event is, still today, represented by a famous monument called the “99 Cannelle” Fountain. This number is peculiar of the city itself, because here you can see 99 churches, 99 squares and 99 neighborhoods.
