Rocca of Umbertide, Medieval castle in Umbertide, Italy.
The stone fortress stands in the center of town with a 32-meter tower and walls measuring 2 meters thick at the foundation level.
Construction of the fortress started in 1374 under architects Angeluccio di Ceccolo and Alberto Guidalotti, reaching completion in 1389 with two corner towers.
The fortress transformed into a contemporary art exhibition space in 1986, displaying a permanent collection of works donated by Giovanni Ciangottini.
Visitors can access the castle through its main entrance facing the town center, with the structure offering views across the Tiber River valley.
The castle functioned as a prison from 1814 to 1923, later becoming residential housing until its conversion to municipal property in 1974.
