According to its characteristic morphology, Ancona is constituted by several hills with amazing landscapes either toward the sea and toward the hills. Upon one of these hills, routing the way that drives to Portonovo (wonderful and peculiar seaside locale area), and far few kms from Ancona with an height of 187 mts o.s.l., it rises the ancient group of houses of “Pietralacroce” from where rotating of 180 degrees, sea and Appennini mountains mix our sight up into a unique landscape. Here in this Hermitage stands up one of the fortresses of Ancona, the historical Forte Altavilla that together with Forte Garibaldi (ex Forte Umberto) was part of the second defensive line of the town. A wide trench protected the fort from land attacks and brick made walls, provided with loopholes, gave possibility to shoot either with cannons and with rifles.

Nowadays this structure is used as urban park and municipal administration together with Ancona Urban Trekking organizes guided tour visits for a urban-touristic walk. Anyway, as public park it gives the possibility to organize as well as musical, cultural and folkloric fairs events.

Il Forte Altavilla, ex forte, costruito intorno alla seconda metà dell'ottocento, si trova nella zona di Ancona, più precisamente nel quartiere di Pietralacroce, facilmente raggiungibile dal centro della città anche attraverso l'utilizzo dei mezzi pubblici. Ad oggi ospita un bel parco e dalla parte alta di esso è possibile ammirare dei bellissimi panorami sia sulla falesia del Conero sopra la spiaggia della Scalaccia sia sul lato del entroterra marchigiano.
