San Lorenzo Castle

San Lorenzo Castle is surrounded by ancient external walls, dating back to the 9th century. It is protected by a moat. The Gothic style castle has been restored several times during centuries.

The castle is visible from very far away, even if it is not on a hill, thanks to its six towers and wide crenellations, which were used by the defenders to protect themselves. A small avenue of 150 meters, which enters in the northern part of the park, leads the visitor  to the façade of the big building. The central tower has painted on it the symbol of the castle’s owners.
