The castle known as Rocca di Berignone (from the name of the forest where it is located, a large forest complex that still today presents itself to the eyes of the visitor in its suggestive natural beauty), Castello dei Vescovi or simply Torraccia, is an important fortified site located south of Volterra, on a rocky spur at the confluence of the Botro al Rio with the Sellate torrent, in the upper Cecina valley.
