Castello Angioino
The Angevin Castle was built around the tenth century at the behest of the Duke of Sorrento. Some historians, however, also attribute the construction to Charles I of Anjou from whom it takes its name. In the following centuries it had several renovations becoming also the seat of the garrison of mercenary soldiers. Within its walls there was the cathedral that housed the bishops of the diocese. The structure consists of powerful walls with towers and towers joined together through a wall with relative side openings.
