Corpolò: Stories Around the Tituccio

Corpolò tells its local history in an unusually tangible way through a fountain: the Fontana del Tituccio is the defining symbol of Piazza del Tituccio. The spring emerged in 1927, when a new well about 110 metres deep unexpectedly began to gush. The year, depth and surprising origin make the Tituccio a concrete introduction to the place—a story rooted in a square and its symbol.

The history of the square and cultural connections

Following the square’s redesign in 2021, a monument to Scureza now stands in the piazza. Corpolò is also associated with the character “Scureza ad Corpolò” in Federico Fellini’s film “Amarcord”. These are two distinct points of reference: the monument is part of the square’s landscape, while the film connection places the name Scureza in a cultural context. Those interested in local memory and culture will find more here than just the name of a single attraction.

The Church of Santa Maria is another specific cultural point of reference in the town. It contains the burial place of a woman. Together with the fountain, the monument and the film connection, it creates a multifaceted impression of Corpolò: the town’s history is reflected in an unexpected spring, places of remembrance and a link to film culture.

Festival culture, piadina and a sunset stroll

The 24th Sagra del Tituccio was scheduled to take place in Corpolò from 3 to 6 September 2026. The Sagra includes a market for handicrafts and typical products. During the festival, volunteers from Corpolò prepare piadina on site. In this way, artisan products and a specific local food preparation come together at the festival—two distinct aspects of the event that go beyond a market alone.

A sunset walk through vineyards and hilly landscapes was planned for the 2026 Titucciata. The event was to conclude with a shared dinner at the Cà Perdicchi agricultural business. This format offers a different focus from the market and the piadina: here, the landscape and a shared end to the evening take centre stage. If events are important to your travel plans, check the dates for your specific stay; the Sagra dates given here refer to September 2026.

Sport and the cycle path as further topics

According to the municipal report of 2 September 2025, Corpolò’s football centre was handed over to the community in 2025. It included a regulation-size natural-grass pitch for eleven-a-side football and a second hard-surface pitch intended for training. According to the report, both pitches were lit for use at night. The different surfaces and purposes offer a clear picture of the sports facility, without implying anything about access or opportunities for visitors to use it.

A municipal mobility overview, updated in March 2008, lists a section of the cycle path along Via Marecchiese from Corpolò to the municipality of Verucchio. Check current conditions before relying on this connection for your plans. Alongside the history of the square and festival culture, sport and cycling are also distinct ways to explore Corpolò.

Corpolò as a destination for your stay

When choosing a holiday apartment, you can start by asking which aspect of the town you would like to shape your stay: the history surrounding Fontana del Tituccio and the piazza; cultural connections such as Scureza and “Amarcord”; festival traditions featuring piadina and handicrafts; or an interest in sport and the cycle path. If a particular festival or cycle route is the deciding factor, take the relevant dates or current conditions into account when planning.
