Castello Svevo di Termoli is a symbol of the medieval village of the city and of the Molise coast. It was built in the 13th century by Frederick II of Swabia, who strengthened it with four corner towers and a drawbridge, while the central tower dates back to the 12th century and is of Norman origin. Today it is a regional historical museum and an art gallery.

The Swabian castle of Termoli characterizes the image of the medieval village of the city with its profile. Its construction is traced back approximately to the XIII century, a period in which Frederick II of Swabia designed a fortification system of the south-eastern Italian borders up to Sicily, while the central Norman tower dates back to the XII century, maintaining the structural characteristics of the Norman towers existing.
