The castle walls of Stroncone

1 Minute of reading

The castle walls of Stroncone, with their imposing structure, tell stories of battles and daily life in the village.

Mura castellane

In 1215, Pope Innocent III gave recognition to Stroncone's municipal autonomy, an event that marked the beginning of a new era for the village and its fortresses.

These walls have witnessed and participated in the historical vicissitudes that saw Stroncone, then territory of the Papal State, prey to conquerors such as Pandolfo Malatesta in 1378.

Today, the castle walls are not only a historical monument, but also the heart of a new pedestrian path with panoramic sites, two intermediate entrances to the historical centre, a panoramic sidewalk and new lighting along all the city walls, making the walk an evocative experience even at night.
