Walls, towers and gates Pistoia e Montagna Pistoiese

Considered a historical monument of the city, it was built in the 9th century in Piazza del Duomo. Built entirely of stone, the tower is about 30 meters high. A lookout terrace has also been added to the roof, thanks to the panoramic position that allows the complete view of Piazza del Duomo.

For centuries a clear separation between the city and the surrounding countryside and while the town grew, the walls were extended. Pistoia is still surrounded by the remains of three walls which are open to visitors every day.
