The main street of Rimini is called Corso d’Augusto. The street starts at the Arco d’Augusto (“Arch of Augustus“) and leads to Piazza Tre Martiri. It is here that the Forum was located in Roman times and it is here that Julius Caesar spoke some famous words after crossing the Rubicon.
A brief history of the Corso d’Augusto in Rimini
Just off the beginning of the Corso d’Augusto, one can visit the Tempio Malatestiano, as Rimini’s Cathedral is called. The latter is graced by frescoes by Piero della Francesca and a “Crucifixion” painted by Giotto.
Walking further along Corso d’Augusto, one arrives at Piazza Cavour and the historical centre proper, with important Roman monuments such as the Domus del Chirurgo and the Ponte di Tiberio. The district starting at this bridge is called Borgo San Giuliano and is considered the city’s most authentic neighborhood. This is the district where much of Federico Fellini’s masterpiece “Amarcord” (Riminese dialect for “I remember”) is set.
