The "Terra di Libertà" (English: "Land of Liberty") is the national anthem of the Republic of San Marino. It was written by Federico Consolo, an Italian violinist and composer, and was officially adopted in 1894, replacing both "La Sammarinese" and the "Hymn of San Marino".

It is one of a few without official lyrics along with the "Marcha Real" of Spain, the National Anthem of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and "Europe" of Kosovo. Giosuè Carducci wrote the lyrics which were never adopted and are not sung in official ceremonies.[1] While they are occasionally performed in informal contexts and taught in school, they remain quite unpopular among the citizens.

It is played before the national soccer team play their games by the musicians of the Sammarinese Armed Forces and before big football games like the Sanmarinese Cup Final and The Vatican, Sicilian and Sammarinese League Cup final.[1]

Etymology

[edit | edit source]

Until 26 September 2025, the composition had no unique title and was just referred to as "Inno Nazionale della Repubblica" (English: "National Anthem of the Republic"). On 26 September 2025, the song formally received an official title, "Terra di Libertà".[2]
