For about a millennium, the great manor house, erected on the rocky spur that has made it a fascinating and original panoramic subject, has watched over the village below.
A unique combination in which the fortified architecture has been inseparably linked to the surrounding environment.
Unique in its type and size, the Castrocaro Fortress is composed of three distinct architectural and defensive works: the Girone, the Rocca and the Medicean Arsenals.
Inside the museum complex it is possible to visit the Fortress and the Medicean Arsenals, the Palazzo del Castellano, the Courtyard of Arms, the Court, the Church of Santa Barbara, the Prison Tower, the Troglodytic Caves and the so-called 'Balcony of Acquacheta', from which one can admire a breathtaking panorama that sweeps as far as Mount Falterona. The rooms of the Palazzo del Castellano house the Historical-Archaeological Museum entitled "L'AQUILA, LE CHIAVI, IL GIGLIO", where weapons, majolica, paintings, furniture and antique furnishings are exhibited.
