On the westside of the perimeter stands the Cassero, the defensive tower and at one point only entrance to the center.<\/p>\n<h3>The Cassero<\/h3>\n<p>The military structure with 14th century square design was modified in the 1500s with the installation of large long-range firearms. In the 18th century, it continued to operate as a robust element of the city\u2019s defenses. Interventions between the 18th and 19th centuries led to the transformation of the Cassero into an elegant city gate and removal of its drawbridge.<\/p>\n<h3>Towers<\/h3>\n<p>The four corner towers are peculiar because of their circular sections and their solidity that is a testament to their original military function. Today the towers are privately owned.<\/p>\n<h3>The Walls<\/h3>\n<p>The walls that surround historic center are still easily visible from all sides. About 5 meters tall and 2.5 meters wide, they formed the defensive system in which every element had a function: the Cassero commanded the towers and the towers controlled the subjacent walls.<\/p>\n<p>Cassero, towers and walls constituted the defensive system of this town in Imola plain area.<\/p>\n<p>For further information,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.comune.castelguelfo.bo.it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">visit the website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The historic center of\u00a0Castel Guelfo\u00a0is enclosed by city walls erected  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":15236,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_crsspst_to_wwwterremotoriit":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[139,154,134],"tags":[247,346],"class_list":["post-14213","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-if-you-passion-is-art-en","category-places","category-what-to-do","tag-castel-guelfo-en","tag-castel-guelfo"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
