Explorar Rímini

The Fellini Museum is dedicated to the film director Federico Fellini, who was born in Rimini in 1920. Opened in August 2021, it spreads across the rooms of the 15th-century Castel Sismondo, the Palazzo del Fulgor with its cinema, and Piazza Malatesta between them, with film projections, drawings, costumes and installations.

Castel Sismondo is the fortress-palace that Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, lord of Rimini, began building in 1437, with advice from Filippo Brunelleschi in 1438. Only the central core survives, without its outer ring of walls and moat; its brick towers face Piazza Malatesta, and since 2021 its rooms have housed part of the Fellini Museum.
