Rocca Malatestiana di Montecolombo, Medieval fortress in Montescudo-Monte Colombo, Italy
The Rocca Malatestiana rises on a hill with two prominent towers and a central courtyard, offering views over the Conca Valley.
The fortress gained strategic importance during the 13th century when the Malatesta family established control over the Rimini region through military campaigns.
The Male Tower houses exhibitions of Malatestian ceramics, displaying regional craftsmanship techniques developed during medieval times.
Guided tours of the fortress occur daily from April through October, allowing visitors to explore the defensive architecture and museum collections.
The structure integrates Roman and medieval military engineering principles, visible in its foundation stones and upper fortification design.
