Tuscany is one of Italy's world
famous regions. Tuscany, with its enchanted
landscapes from the mountain to the sea. Tuscany,
with its towns with museums, cathedrals, historical
buildings, streets, towns like Florence, Siena, Pisa and more. Tuscany, full of ancient Etruscan and Roman ruins...
But one can not pass through this land
without being aware of Medieval Tuscany. Still
visible are the small walled towns which are a testimony to
the Middle Ages just as much as its great cities.
Castles, fortresses, watch-towers, and town walls appear everywhere; some are well preserved, others are in
ruins, but the main remnants are not on the tourist routes.
In the site, castellitoscani.com created to inform people of the existence and
preservation state of these testimonies to the medieval era,
you will find history, photos, and plans of some of these fortifications.
