Historic Stone Towers

Known as the 'Manhattan of the Middle Ages,' this UNESCO World Heritage site is famous for the 14 surviving stone towers built by rival noble families. These towers served as both defensive structures and status symbols, creating a skyline that has guided pilgrims along the Via Francigena for centuries.
