De La Fratta, Medieval tower on Mount Titano, San Marino.

The second tower of San Marino stands at an elevation of 756 meters on Mount Titano, featuring thick stone walls and defensive fortifications.

Built in 1253 upon a former Roman fort, De La Fratta tower served as a crucial defensive structure for protecting San Marino from external threats.

The Museum of Ancient Arms inside the tower displays a collection of 1,550 weapons, demonstrating the military traditions of San Marino through centuries.

Visitors can access the tower through marked paths from the city center and explore both the fortification structure and the weapons exhibition.

The tower appears on the national flag of San Marino alongside its two companion towers, representing the independence of this microstate.
