San Vito is a town in Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy. The town is divided between the comuni of Rimini and Santarcangelo di Romagna, both in the Province of Rimini, with a northern part in San Mauro Pascoli, in the Province of Forlì-Cesena. Culturally, the town is closest to Santarcangelo.[1]

The town is on the right bank of the river Uso [it],[1][2] which flows from Perticara [it], a frazione of Novafeltria, to the Adriatic Sea in Bellaria–Igea Marina.[2] As of 2021, the town numbers approximately 4,000 residents.[1] Located seven Roman miles along the Via Aemilia from Rimini,[3] San Vito is the site of the Ponte di San Vito, a monumental Roman bridge,[2] which Riminese historians have claimed as the place where Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon.[4][5]
