Tour
Pratovecchio
Itinerary
The proposed itinerary will take you through medieval Casentino, among castles and parish churches.
From Pratovecchio a hilly road leads to the castle of Romena, an imposing building, stronghold of the Guidi counts, which from its height of 600 meters dominates the entire valley. On foot or by bus from the castle you can reach the parish church of San Pietro in Romena. The building dates from the 12th century and has been remodeled several times, with a simple facade and bell tower. The interior architecture, with three naves, features monolithic columns of boulder with capitals adorned with sculptures depicting floral elements and human figures, rich in symbols and fascinating meanings.
