Castello Due Torri di Scorticata

The fortress contains two circular towers, a gate, and remnants of a keep situated on a rocky elevation at 377 meters above sea level.

In 1141, Pope Lucius II transferred the ownership of the castle to the church of Rimini, marking the beginning of its documented history.

The castle structure incorporates architectural elements from different periods, including medieval defense systems and religious buildings added throughout centuries.

Parts of the ancient fortress now function as a restaurant, allowing visitors to experience the medieval architecture while dining.

The fortress maintained a network of walkways connecting to a 13th-century square tower that served as an observation point over the Marecchia valley.
