In order to breathe a more cultural air, it is recommended to visit the churches and museums of the historic center that preserve the treasures of the city and its millenary history, influenced by the succession of domination and artistic and architectural alterations.
Among the recommended visits, city symbols: the Diocesan Museum, the Cathedral Museum, the Church of “the Purgatory” and the Church of “old” San Cosimo.
Then, for the military civil engineering: the Castle of Santo Stefano, the Cintola Tower, Torre San Giorgio and just a stone’s throw from Palazzo Maio, the Castle of Carlo V with it’s urban and coastal fortification system.
