Summary edit

Description
Italiano: Fortezza Medicea Pare fosse in origine un castello, sembra risalente al VI/VII secolo D.C. in piena epoca longobarda. Situato sul punto pià alto per controllare sia il Trasimeno che la Valdorcia. I senesi, dopo la vittoria di Monteaperti del 1260 lo trasformarono nella loro fortezza. E’ nominata Medicea perché la sua ultima ristrutturazione fu progettata da Antonio da Sangallo il Vecchio, architetto del Rinascimento, figlio dell’architetto di Cosimo dè Medici. Oggi la Fortezza è usata sia come istituto universitario e sia come stand espositivo per le varie mostre che si svolgono a Montepulciano.

Located on the highest point to control both Trasimeno and Valdorcia. The Sienese, after the victory of Monteaperti in 1260, transformed it into their fortress. It is named Medicea because its latest renovation was designed by Antonio da Sangallo the Elder, a Renaissance architect, son of the architect of Cosimo de 'Medici. Today the Fortress is used both as a university institute and as an exhibition stand for the various exhibitions that take place in Montepulciano.
