The view from up here of Porto Venere with the citadel and the island of Palmaria behind it is stunning.

The Citadel, also known as the Sarzana Fortress or Firmafede Fortress, was the first fortification in Sarzana, built in the 13th century. It was owned by the lord Castruccio Castracani, who made numerous significant modifications to its defenses. After its destruction by Florence in 1487, it was rebuilt on the orders of Lorenzo de' Medici. In 1494, the Republic of Genoa, having regained possession of Sarzana, completed work on the Citadel. The fortress is used as a venue for cultural events and exhibitions and also houses the Fortress Museum, an interactive exhibit that traces the history of Sarzana and the Lunigiana region.

A very easy and pleasant ride. Much of the route follows secondary roads with very little traffic. Splendid views of Fosdinovo Castle, the mouth of the Magra River, and the Bay of La Spezia.

The Firmafede Fortress (originally called Cittadella) was built in 1249 thanks to the help of the Pisan allies of the city. In the 15th century the city became an important strategic point, Lorenzo the Magnificent decided to transform the village into a military stronghold of the Florentine lordship and to rebuild the fortress. In 1496 the fortress passed to the Banco di San Giorgio and from 1562 to the Republic of Genoa, remaining there until the end of the 18th century, a period in which it underwent several interventions. In the 19th century, with the annexation of the Republic to the Savoy kingdom and with the radical changes in defensive strategies, the fortress was used first as a police barracks and subsequently as a prison until the 1970s.

The Torre di Castruccio is a military fortress located in Via Gino Menconi in Avenza, in the province of Massa-Carrara, near the Carrione River and Via Francigena. It is considered one of the main attractions of the city of Carrara. The tower has a cylindrical shape, with a base slightly wider than the upper part. Inside the tower is visible a tunnel that once connected the fortress with the nearby Piazza Carlo Finelli. In 2013, graffiti depicting symbols of Christ's passion were discovered, made by prisoners in the tower between the 16th and 18th centuries. In 2015, two more passages were discovered connecting the tower to the banks of the Carrione River and the center of the old town. After the unification of Italy, the fortress was sold by the Italian state to private owners to be used as a quarry, and in 1883 only the intervention of the German historian Theodor Momsen saved it from total destruction. Before the 'scientific dismantling' it consisted of three large round towers and one square one.

The Citadel, also called the Sarzana Fortress or Firmafede Fortress, was the first fortress of the city of Sarzana, built in the thirteenth century. After its destruction in 1487 by Florence, it was rebuilt on the orders of Lorenzo de' Medici himself. In 1494, the Republic of Genoa, after regaining possession of Sarzana, completed the work on the Citadel. The fortress is used as a venue for cultural events and exhibitions and also houses the Museum of the Fortresses, an interactive route that follows the history of Sarzana and Lunigiana.

The castle of Fosdinovo dominates the town of the same name located at the mouth of the Val di Magra towards the sea. Legend has it that Dante Alighieri also stayed in this castle, but in fact the event is historically impossible. Another legend is linked to the presence of the 'well of forgetfulness' in one of the rooms of the castle: it is said that the marquise Cristina Adelaide Pallavicino, wife of Ippolito Malaspina, lured her lovers into a room and once her instincts were satisfied they took them caused him to fall into the trap bristling with blades which then flowed into a nearby canal.
