Middelalderligt fæstning Medicea - Volterra - Toscana

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

Medici-fæstningen i Volterra blev bygget på det højeste punkt af bakken, hvor byen ligger: Udefra ser den virkelig majestætisk og imponerende ud.

Strukturen består af to bygninger, der er forbundet af høje forsvarsmure: Rocca Vecchia, også kendt som Cassero, som blev bygget i 1342 af hertugen af Athen, Gualtieri VI. af Brienne, guvernør af Firenze, og ombygget af Lorenzo den Prægtige, og Rocca Nuova, kendt som Il Mastio, bygget af Lorenzo den Prægtige selv mellem 1472 og 1474.

I dag bruges bygningen som et statsfængsel af mellem sikkerhed, som ikke er tilgængeligt og ikke kan besøges.
