Torre Porta Romana
Torre Porta Romana was built in the fourteenth century, in order to defend one of the entrances of the city. Its height is 25 meters and is provided with three important elements: the door, an iron grate and the drawbridge. In the 16th century, the second arch of the Roman Gate was walled. The first restoration of the tower lasted 5 years (1990-1994) immediately after the restorations the Museum was officially opened. Thanks to the participation of the “Family of Sangiorgiari”, a restoration of the fresco of the “Madonna with Child” has also been carried out lately.
