SITUATION AND ACCESS

The buildings are a few metres from each other forming in this way a united complex in a quiet and hospitable place, which is particularly nice and peaceful.

Bertinoro is half way between Forlì and Cesena, 6 kilometres from State Road No.9 (Via Emilia), immediately east of Forlimpopoli. A shuttle bus service will be organized on Sunday, September 21, on Wednesday, September 24, and on Thursday, September 25, from the railway station of Forlì.

Further information on the Centro is posted on its web page.
