If you drive through these wooded hills, you will repeatedly come across traces of human settlements that no longer exist. Like the village of Redde, of which only a few foundations remain, which you can find very close to the chapel of S. Clemente. Much easier to see, however, is the only really well-preserved relic of the disappeared village: this residential tower from the Middle Ages. It comes from the 12th / 13th centuries. Century and probably once offered shelter to a well-heeled resident of the village.

Located in the woods south of Vaglio, the tower of Redde or of S. Clemente is of medieval origin; it was part of an inhabited complex comprising a village (Redde), the house-fortress and a church.
The village was abandoned in the 1500s, perhaps due to the plague, and traces of walls covered by earth and leaves remain of it. Instead, the small church of S. Clemente survives, also dating back to the 13th century and located about 300 meters from the tower.

Place of easy access and requires no special equipment. The tower is fascinating! I highly recommend visiting this place.
