Tips

Romolo

March 6, 2025

The Castle stands on a small hill, a short distance from the Chiascio River and along the borders that divided the territories of the Municipality of Assisi from those of Perugia. Built almost entirely of sandstone blocks, it still retains the clearly visible walls that mark its rectangular development, with corner towers. The entrance gate is protected by a mighty tower with turrets, on which the slots for the drawbridge's lowering are still clearly visible. The Castle was mentioned as early as 1114 in documents kept in the Archives of the Cathedral of Assisi. Due to its particular position, it was the scene of power struggles, which continued until the 15th century. In 1479, together with the Castles of Rocca Sant'Angelo, Mora and Beviglie, it was the subject of significant restoration work by the Municipality of Assisi. It can still be admired today in its original structure, only partially altered due to the partial transformation for residential use.
