Audiotur CASTELLO DUCALE

Declared a National Monument in 1902, the Ducal Castle of Torremaggiore (11th-16th centuries) developed over the years around the central square tower and was built on one of the highest points in the territory as a fortified structure. The structure underwent several transformations over the centuries, especially at the hands of the Princes of Sangro, until it acquired its current Renaissance appearance. The Castle has six towers, and a moat delimited by a surrounding wall. In the past, the Castle was connected to the Ducale Theater by an elevated passage in which some remains are still visible. It currently contains the Civic Museum.
