Rocca Description
A little way west of Santa Maria Assunta, built against the town walls on the highest point of the hill, is the rocca (castle), erected by the Florentines in 1353 but demolished in 1555 on the orders of Cosimo I. Only a tower and fragments of the walls survive. From the top there are magnificent views of the town and surrounding countryside.
