Montecatini alto has three towers. One tower is part of the remains of the castle, the second is the clock tower and the last is in front of the monastery of Santa Maria a Ripa (century XVI). This monastery is the only one that has been inhabited by the Benedictine nuns since 1861. The old Augustinian monastery of Santa Margherita now houses a rest home.
