Castracani Fortress in Sarzana

The "Fortezza Castracani", on the hill just above the town. The building's main structure is an equilateral triangle with sides of over 60 meters, reinforced at the vertices by hefty cylindrical towers; inside the triangle lies a square building which is the core of the fortress. he fortezza complex is divided in two parts: the "rivellino", that is the outer wall, and the fortress itself. These two parts are connected by a bridge standing in front of the fortress, which is in turn linked to the allure through a narrow bridge.
