With this Italian resort, our tourists can only be said, just begin to get acquainted, since the main contingent of vacationers in Diano Marina is residents of European countries.
The history of this edge is quite ancient, and objects found during the excavations indicate that the first settlers appeared here in the Iron Age. If it were not for a strong and destructive earthquake, which occurred in these parts at the end of the nineteenth century, we would get a richer architectural ensemble. Although on the other hand, this particular fact and gave the start of the development of Diano Marina, as a resort, gaining increasing popularity. But despite all the temporary and natural cataclysms, there is something to see.
In the second half of the twentieth century, archaeological excavations began here with primitive labor tools and the remains of animals. These exhibits are kept in the first hall of the archaeological museum of the resort, which is located in the nineteenth century building, called Palazzo Del Parco.
The museum was opened in 2004. The second hall is devoted to the era of the Bronze Age, where pottery dated 17-10 centuries to our era are exhibited. Subsequent halls contain exhibits as civilization develops. So, for example, in the fifth hall, the coins of the Roman era are presented to the first century BC and the third-fourth century after the Nativity of Christ. There is also the remains of the ship, sunken at these shores in the first century of our era. I will not talk about everything you can see here, because it is much more interesting to visit this museum on your own. I can only add that in the same building there is a largest library in Diano Marina, which will be interested in literature lovers and bucinists. The museum is located on Garibaldi Street, close to the port and works daily.
Of the historical and religious attractions, it is certainly worth named by the Church of St. Antonio Abate, which was built in the nineteenth century.
This building stands out against the background of others with its interesting and unique architecture. The inner decoration is very interesting with its frescoes, and the altar itself is made of marble. To religious objects worthy of visiting, it is worth attributed to the Church of St. Anne, built in the seventeenth century in the style of Baroque. Also, the Santissima Annunciat is not far from the port. This is a medieval chapel. There are not few and other, no less interesting buildings in this city, such as Villa Scarcella, on the site of the former monastery of the Order of the Dominicans, and now the employee school of primary classes.
A favorite place of tourist walks is the seaside boulevard stretching three kilometers along the seashore.
