The Ducal Star for Pesaro 2024: “A precious gift, which binds the two UNESCO cities", commented the mayor Matteo ricci, thanking Michele and Tommaso Papi of the Il Compasso restoration workshop, which yesterday, accompanied by the entrepreneur in the tourism sector Federico Scaramucci, have delivered one of the prestigious symbols of Urbino to the Italian Capital of Culture 2024.”

“The Ducal Star has its origins with Luca Pacioli, taken up by Leonardo Da Vinci, as a symbol of the Renaissance, “then – as he said Popes – in the 20s Carlo Ugolini, great-grandfather, decided to make a chandelier”. A symbol of our excellence, as underlined by Scaramucci: “we want to enhance and promote elements of our identity also through the precious and timely work of local artisans".

The philosophy found in the Italian Capital of Culture "a great development opportunity that we want to make the most of, to improve the local economy for the next decades. And it will be the opportunity, at the end of 2024, to officially launch the candidacy of Pesaro and Urbino as European Capital of Culture 2033“, concluded Ricci.
