Frontino National Culture Prize

Since 1981, the Frontino, Montefeltro National Culture Prize has brought writers, artists, and leading figures of Italian culture to the village.

Conceived by Carlo Bo and Antonio Mariani, this unique event honors works and projects that have left a significant mark on literature, art, and thought.

The award ceremony, held in the evocative setting of the Montefiorentino Monastery, is accompanied by moments of reflection and dialogue, turning Frontino into an open-air cultural center. 

Montefiorentino Convent

Suspended between Frontino and San Sisto, on a hill surrounded by greenery, lies a place that welcomes with the same gentle breath as those who know how to listen: the Convent of Montefiorentino, long a destination of pilgrimage and silence.
