Castello dei Monteroni

The Castle of Monteroni or Castellaccio was built around the fourteenth century along the route of the Via Aurelia and in its area known for the ancient Etruscan mounds. Its function, during the first century of construction, was as a tavern and post office for pilgrims who traveled the route mentioned above. The denomination of Castellaccio derives from the fact that after World War II the fortress was in a poor state of preservation.
