Urbino, a charming walled city in central Italy, is renowned for its rich history and Renaissance architecture, particularly the iconic 15th-century Palazzo Ducale. This city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was a center of art and learning under the patronage of Federico da Montefeltro, the Duke of Urbino from 1444 to 1482. Today, visitors can explore the Palazzo Ducale, now home to the Marche National Gallery, which houses an impressive collection of Renaissance paintings.
