Predappio is situated on state road 9 ter that climbs up the valley of river Rabbi: gullies and seams of clay surround this town and their number gradually increases towards the Apennine.
Predappio is distinctly separated from the antique Predappio (officially denominated Predappio Alta by a 1936 royal decree) and this witnesses Benito Mussolini's effort to set his birthplace off.
Predappio has several sights of interest such as the castle, a medieval gate named la portaccia, the sanctuary of the Beata Vergine della Maestà, the church of Santa Maria Assunta.
