Rocca di Cerbaia, Castle ruin in Carmignanello, Italy.
The fortress stands at 400 meters elevation on a hill overlooking the Bisenzio River, featuring two perimeter walls and a pentagonal central tower.
Emperor Federico Barbarossa granted the fortress to the Alberti counts in 1164, establishing their control over the route to Lombardy in the region.
Noble woman Cunizza da Romano, mentioned in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, spent her final years at the fortress sharing stories of her life.
Visitors can reach the castle through hiking trail number 48 from CAI-Prato, starting at the village of Carmignanello near Prato.
The fortress contains remains of a medieval apsidal chapel within its first wall circuit and a barrel-covered water tank in the second enclosure.
