Castello di Bibbiano, Medieval castle in Buonconvento, Italy
The castle features a central square keep surrounded by double walls with a protective ditch extending along three sides of the fortification.
Originally established in 850 under Longobard count Guinigi di Reghinari, the castle underwent reconstruction in the fifteenth century following Cardinal Raffaello Petrucci's design plans.
The castle's architecture incorporates elements from different periods, including Guelph-style battlements and a gatehouse adorned with sandstone ashlar decorations.
Located 4 kilometers from Buonconvento town center, visitors can reach the castle by following the SS2 Cassia road and directional signs.
Two crenelated leaning turrets stand on the western wall, with one remaining complete while the other exists only through its supporting stone brackets.
