Venue overview
Everything you need to know
Le Stonghe Estate is a 500-year-old property spanning 14 hectares on a hilltop ridge near Fossombrone in the Marche region, with panoramic views stretching across rolling countryside — wheat fields, olive groves, and cypress-lined villages — all the way to the Adriatic Sea. The estate comprises two separate residences set 500 metres apart: a historic Palazzo and a stylish Country House, each with its own private swimming pool. Together, the 10 apartments across both buildings offer 25 double bedrooms and 22 bathrooms, accommodating up to 50 adults and 10 children overnight. Weddings for 40 to 100 guests unfold across the estate's atmospheric spaces: ceremonies in the open barn overlooking the rolling hills, a four-course dinner on the panoramic terrace, and after-dinner dancing in the 500-year-old candlelit courtyard. The all-inclusive wedding package includes an on-site wedding planner, in-house chef preparing Le Marche cuisine with local ingredients (fresh pasta, truffles, porcini, coastal seafood), pizza from a century-old wood-fired oven, artisanal gelato, and open bar — making Le Stonghe one of the most complete wedding packages in Italy.

About this venue
Le Stonghe Estate — wedding venue in Fossombrone, Marche
Le Stonghe takes its name from the ridge — La Stongha — at the foot of the Apennine foothills where the estate sits. The Palazzo dates back 500 years, reflecting the rural nobility tradition of the Marche region, where grand residences were built on hilltops to command views across the surrounding agricultural landscape.
The estate's two-residence layout — Palazzo and Country House set 500 metres apart — creates a unique dynamic for wedding celebrations, giving the couple and close family their own private residence while guests enjoy the other. Both properties share the same sweeping panoramic views, from the rolling Marche countryside to the distant Adriatic Sea.
