Monterivoso Castle

Monterivoso Castle lies along the ancient road that led to the Salto del Cieco Customs, an obligatory passage in order to go to the Papal State of the Kingdom of Naples. The wool trade took place along this route going from Abruzzi towards Tuscany. Monterivoso, thanks to its strategic position, was one of the richest castles in Ferentillo, even becoming a Shire by the behest of the Cybo family. The whole of its oldest part has recently been restored with the church of St. Anthony that lies above the castle walls, and the watchtower which can be visited in its entirety.
