With a population of over 36,000, this ancient city offers visitors a taste of authentic Italian culture, from its traditional cuisine to its picturesque architecture. Known as the "Miracle City," Lanciano draws in tourists for its religious significance and its rich cultural heritage.

One of the main attractions in Lanciano is the Church of San Francesco, which houses the Eucharistic Miracle. According to legend, in the 8th century, a monk had doubts about the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. During mass, the bread and wine miraculously turned into flesh and blood, which still remains preserved in the church today. This event has made Lanciano a major religious pilgrimage site for Catholics, drawing in thousands of visitors each year.

Aside from its religious significance, Lanciano also boasts a charming historic center with narrow cobblestone streets, ancient buildings, and quaint cafes. The Piazza Plebiscito is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, with its stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the Adriatic Sea.
