Built directly on the stone of the mountain without any foundations, the First Tower, with a pentagonal base, dates back to the XI century and is among the oldest fortresses in Italy. It is also called “Rocca” or “Guaita”, which in San Marino dialect means “to stand guard.” Reinforced several times successively and rebuilt in the second half of the 15th century, it was covered with a sloping roof in the 16th century. Between its solid walls, protected by a double wall circle (the outer one with battlements and decapitated towers at the corners), sheltered the people during sieges. The central core was the guardhouse, and some rooms were used as a prison until October 1970 for those serving sentences not exceeding 6 months. Admission: € 6.00 cumulative ticket with the Second Tower or another monument of your choice. € 8.00 full visit ticket for all monuments. Opening hours Winter Sept 6 - June 6: 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. From June 07 to Sept 5: 9:30 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. September 06 to Dec

The Third Tower known as the Montale Tower dates back to the late 13th century. It is the “smallest” in size, but it played a strategic role in defense: in fact, it is placed in the best position for lookout. It is a fortress with a pentagonal plan, restored several times over the centuries, most recently in 1935. The interior contains an 8-meter-deep dungeon known as the “bottom of the tower.” Around the Montale can be seen very old large boulders of rock, stacked in a primitive manner in the guise of walls. The section of wall leading from the Second Tower to the parking lot of the ancient quarry belongs to the remains of the second city wall built in the 13th century. The city of San Marino, in fact, was fortified by three sets of walls built at three different times and largely torn down to allow the city to expand. This tower is not open to the public for visits and can only be admired from the outside.

Picturesque, Sacred, Beautiful! A must-see for anyone traveling in these parts.

"A privileged place is reserved in the Bible for Mary, who was chosen to become the Mother of God and to participate positively in the Incarnation and Redemption. In the past, the grace of divine election was emphasized above all. Today, Mary's response is also emphasized, her yes, or rather, her 'active and responsible consent'. A responsible and courageous yes to a task that involved the whole world..." Text: Albino Luciani, Patriarch of Venice, 1975 (later Pope John Paul I)
