The fortress Civitella del Tronto is a Renaissance fortress located near a cliff above the town center of the Italian municipality of Civitella del Tronto in the province of Teramo and serves as a keystone for territorial control with tactical and defensive functions.
The defense complex represents one of the most important strongholds of the Kingdom of Naples during the time of the Spanish Viceroyalty and is an impressive work of military engineering realized on the grounds of medieval Italy. In its extent, it is comparable to the fortress Brunetta, which the Piedmontese built near the town of Susa, and with the fortress Hohensalzburg, with which it entered into a partnership in 1989. Its buildings extend over about 500 meters in length and an average width of 45 meters, covering an area of 25,000 m².
