The history of Palazzo Mucci, a castle fortified since the 12th century, is closely linked to that of the eight nearby medieval castles (first of all Castel dei Fabbri) which had a tormented fate: first united under the vicariate of Lamoli, they were then disputed by the Duke of Urbino, under the constant threat of the Brancaleoni family, and finally reconquered by the Church.

Monterone, located in the municipality of Sestino, in the province of Arezzo, is a place steeped in history and charm. This small medieval village, located on a hill and surrounded by fortified walls, still seems to retain the magic of the past. The old stone facades overlook the alleys that wind downwards like a spiral staircase. The view extends over the Foglia valley and reaches as far as Alpe della Luna, which acts as the border. It is no wonder that Monterone has acquired the nickname of Castello del Luto. The small square in front of the church is the scene of some musical events. Every year, in the first week after Easter, the lutenist Sigrun Richter holds a Masterclass for lute and Early Music Ensembles. During the summer, Ancient Music weekends are also planned for lutenists and singers with teachers Patrizia Vaccari (singing) and Sigrun Richter (lute) If you are passionate about history and culture, Monterone is definitely a place to visit. And if you have the opportunity to participate in one of the concerts or ancient music courses, you will be able to immerse yourself even more in the atmosphere of this enchanting village.

This ancient agglomeration is located 471 meters above sea level, surrounded by slightly higher mountains, immersed in a landscape of dense woodlands that make the air fresh and crisp... In this place, intoxicated by the inconstancy of the borders between Marche and Tuscany, disoriented, you can find a point of complete peace: Campo. As you approach the hamlet your gaze is captured by a particular building, which rises high above the roofs. Compact and yellowish (made of sandstone), it watches the approach of curious and unknown people from its vertical slits... The small castle, according to local tradition and a certain historiography, was the scene of an important historical event. In the second half of the 15th century, Campo, right in the Montefeltro area, found itself on the side of the Malatesta family of Rimini who, it should be remembered, still owned many castles in the Feretrano area. The ancient chronicles say that in the year 1439, the seventeen-year-old Federico di Montefeltro was seriously injured during the assault on a castle called 'Campli' and defined as an 'ignoble castle'. This castle, according to historical tradition, would be none other than today's hamlet of Campo di Belforte. It is certainly suggestive, today, to imagine the village still surrounded by walls with, at its feet, the Urbino troops (and the young Federico) lined up in siege against the occupiers who did not want to bend their insignia to the dukes of Urbino. Wandering around the small podium that supports the houses, you can still notice the remains of this city wall, heavily damaged and missing in most of its perimeter. Following what remains of the walls you arrive at a church. Its facade is gaunt, gray. At first glance it would seem like a church like many others, without any particular elements of value. However, approaching the wall on the right it is possible to notice some particular stones in the texture of the facing.

The Castello della Pieve was built near an ancient pagan temple dedicated, according to tradition, to the God of the river Metauro. The Castle was built after the disintegration of the Roman Empire in the 12th century, it was fortified to defend the ancient Pieve d'Ico, current Mercatello sul Metauro. With its high towers in large stone ashlars, the armigers defended this noble land from the intrigues of errant knights and from the conspiracies of the powerful. The Medieval Castle thus played an important role in the military geography of Massa Trabaria, Guelph stronghold and Vassalla of the Holy See.
