Castello di Tagliacozzo, Medieval castle in Tagliacozzo, Italy.
The stone castle stands on a strategic position overlooking the Marsica valley, with high defensive walls and square towers marking its perimeter.
The fortress played a central role during the 1268 Battle of Tagliacozzo between Charles I of Anjou and Conradin of Hohenstaufen.
The castle structure represents the military architecture of central Italy, reflecting the power dynamics between the Orsini and Colonna families.
The castle grounds open to visitors from Tuesday to Sunday, with guided tours available in Italian and English through the local tourism office.
The castle's position allows visitors to observe both the Marsica valley and the mountain ranges of Abruzzo National Park from its watchtowers.
