The most ancient decorative portrait in Civitanova Marche is the patron Saint Marone’s one. He’s a photometry and apostle from Piceno, whose image was placed on the banners of the city and in public deeds’ seals. Graces and miracles, taken place during the centuries until nowadays confirm the continuity of a cult emphasized just from the presence of the saint’s body. Popular tradition tells moreover about the strong devotion of local fishermen and sailors, who took part in religious processions and offered presents for thanking about escaped dangers in sea waters.
