Located between the hills of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines, the municipality of Castrocaro Terme with its well known district Terra del Sole (sun kissed lands), are located in the heart of Romagna-Forlì area, at the mouth of the valley of the river Montone. It is composed of several districts Castrocaro, Terra del Sole and Pieve Salutare.
Castrocaro is a pleasant town with a large SPA and wellness area, famous also for its music festival of "New Voices". Human settlements have been present here since prehistoric times, followed by Umbria-Piceno poulations, then by Etruscan-Celts and finally by the Romans. In Middle Ages the town served as an important strategic military base and during the Renaissance it was proclaimed capital of the Tuscan Romagna region.
Terra del Sole is a district that belonged to the Medici family, built following the principles of the Renaissance. It is a fortress city built by Cosimo I de' Medici, when Castrocaro was the capital of the Tuscan Romagna area, while the other district Pieve Salutare is located at about 4km from Castrocaro.
