It is located on the Sasso del Lupo or Pietra Anellaria (from sandstone) and from the top of this natural cliff it dominates the underlying Savio valley. The fortress was probably built around the year 1000 by the Cavalca family of the Counts of Bertinoro, who at the time dominated the territory by ecclesiastical investiture. Around 1100 it was expanded by Altruda Frangipani, also of the Cavalca family, who managed the country with justice and wisdom ... When the Counts of Bertinoro died out ... the fortress belonged to the Archbishops of Ravenna and, later, to the Faggiolani, the Guidi, the Tarlati, the Brancaleoni, the Malatesta and the Montefeltro. And it was precisely with the arrival of this last family that the original fortress underwent the first radical transformations. ... it was the first change from a war bulwark to the princely residence that it would become with the Fregoso. .... In 1660 S. Agata and its castle returned under the dominion of the Church. Since then the fortress continued to be used as a residence at least until 1781 when it was transformed into a convent; on this occasion the Conventuals built, leaning against the fortress, the church dedicated to San Francesco della Rosa. Over the last two centuries the Fortress has been used as a Convent of the Friars Minor Conventual, a high school, a prison, a courthouse and finally a civilian residence. ... Today the Fortress is managed by the Pro-loco Association and is home to the permanent museum "Rocca delle Fiabe". (Source: https://www.roccadellefiabe.it/rocca-fregoso/ )

In ancient times, there was a Celletta dedicated to the Virgin in the place, and it was called the "Serra della Sconfitta" location, because here the Agates, with the help of the Virgin, would have repelled and defeated an army of invaders. Hence also the name "Madonna del Soccorso". It was built at the beginning of the 16th century (1520) in Romanesque style. The interior with a single nave, shows the peculiarity of the exposed beam, and inside a beautiful gilded altarpiece, an altarpiece is glued depicting the miracle of the Virgin of Soccorso who saves a child from the devil called by an imprudent mother. A third miracle is also attributed to the Madonna del Soccorso: a jealous lover shot his woman in the chest, piercing her velvet corset, but the woman, invoking the Virgin of Soccorso, remained unharmed. Inside the Church, the corset with the bullet hole is still on display. (Source: https://www.lavalmarecchia.it/visita/verucchio/santuario-madonna-del-soccorso.html )

Around the castle there are some beautifully designed fairy tale characters, such as fairies, Snow White, etc.

The Rocca Fregoso is a fortified construction located in the village of Sant'Agata Feltria, in the province of Rimini, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The fortress dates back to the 10th century, but its definitive construction is attributed to the famous architect Francesco di Giorgio Martini. From 1474 to 1660, the fortress was the residence of the Fregoso family, originally from the Republic of Genoa and closely related to the da Montefeltro, dukes of Urbino. The fortress has been restored and well preserved and can be visited.

It is located on the Sasso del Lupo or Pietra Anellaria (from sandstone) and from the top of this natural overhang it dominates the Savio valley below. The fortress was probably built around the year one thousand by the Cavalca family of the counts of Bertinoro, who at the time dominated the territory by ecclesiastical investiture. Around 1100 it was enlarged by Altruda Frangipani, also from the Cavalca family, who managed the town with justice and wisdom ... Once the Counts of Bertinoro were extinct... the Rocca belonged to the Archbishops of Ravenna and, later, to the Faggiolani, the Guidi, the Tarlati, the Brancaleoni, the Malatesta and the Montefeltro. And it is precisely with the advent of this last family that the primitive fortress underwent its first radical transformations. ... it is the first change from a war bastion to that princely residence that it will become with the Fregoso family. .... In 1660 S. Agata and its castle returned under the dominion of the Church. Since then the fortress continued to be used as a residence at least until 1781 when it was transformed into a convent; on this occasion the conventuals built the church dedicated to San Francesco della Rosa, leaning against the fortress. In the last two centuries the Fortress has been used as a Convent of the Conventual Friars Minor, as a high school, as a prison, as a Magistrates' Court and finally as a civil residence. ... Today the Rocca is managed by the Pro-loco Association and is home to the permanent "Rocca delle Fiabe" museum. (Source: https://www.roccadellefiabe.it/rocca-fregoso/ )
