Medieval Days in late July aside, autumn brings clear weather for the Three Towers loop and the Sammarinese Republic Day celebrations on September 3.
Nov-Apr
Cool winters with snow possible at Titano's peak, the Christmas market in Piazza della Libertà running through January, and the country's stamp-collecting heritage on display.
