Buon Giorno e Buona Vacanza!
The beauty of Tuscany is that everyone of its numerous corners is more beautiful, interesting and delightful than the last, and perhaps its those corners which are less frequented by the masses, which are more natural and "real" that we all long to see. Val Tiberina, in the far most eastern part of Tuscany is not only the birth place of the river which runs through Rome but also the home of artistic greats like Piero della Francesca.

The imposing Fortress was the fortified nucleus around which Anghiari developed. Its lovely structure and imposing position are charming to walk through with many little stores and cafes. The castle keep was a place of defense as well as a Camaldolensian monastery, which earned it the name of "Conventone."
