CASTELLO DI ACQUAFREDDA
Castle at the top of a strange hill offering an exceptional view
Perfectly integrated into its surroundings, Acquafredda Castle is barely distinguishable from the rocky outcrop on which it is built. It was built in the 16th century by the Pisan family of Donoratico della Gherardesca, on top of a strange hill. Only a few sections of wall and the central keep remain. Despite five renovations undertaken since the 1980s, the castle remains fragile. There are frequent landslides. The view is exceptional, however, after a slightly steep climb, as the castle still rises to an altitude of 256 metres.
