Formerly called Aternum, Pescara had been used as a maritime emporium to carry out commercial activities with other centres located on the Adriatic or overseas coasts. Destroyed by the Lombards and disputed by the Normans and the Aragonese, it later became an important coastal fortress.

During the Second World War, Pescara suffered violent bombardments which partially destroyed the historic center; this resulted in a predominantly modern-looking city. However, Pescara Vecchia preserves monuments of great interest and artistic and architectural value, such as the Gothic Church of Saint Cetteo, strongly desired by D'Annunzio, and the Borbonic Bath, which was the ancient prison of Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

Taxis are few, it is an easy city to walk around. There are pedestrian areas which are limited to traffic and good sidewalks. Just get in with a good pair of shoes and enjoy. You can get allround with a bike very well.
