Fortress
Museums
More than 500 meters long, this fortress was built between 1564 & 1576 & is now open to visitors.
Slide 1 of 8
Marvel of military engineering of 16th century, probably for while Europe, on the border of spanish Kingdom of Naples and Papal lands. They made a 500m long fortress. With huge water tank and parade grounds. Size doesnt matter....at least to Napoleon 😀. Bellow the fortress is a lovely old town and from the walls you get a beautiful views of surroundings.
It was an interesting sight, few tourists in the middle of the day. I would also recommend visiting the small town located at the foot of the fortress.
This is a must visit if youre in the area. Built in the 1500 with its impressive coral stone walls. The village below was built in the 1700. People still live there. Amazing how people survive in areas like this 3000 feet in the mountains ⛰️
Beautiful old city with narrow streets. Some constructionwork, after earthquake i guess. A castle on top of city where you can visit. Spectacular view from city over the surrounding areas.
It's beautiful and spiritual, magical with all the Christmas and New Year lightings. The Christmas Nativity displays all over the town were very inspiring.
It's a very nice place to visit with amazing views (mountains till the sea). The city is free and you can go to the "narrowest street in Italy" but look at the map or ask someone to don't miss it! In my opinion don't worth to pay extra to see the museum (Jan/2023). The shops were closed when I got there, so my advice is to take your own snacks with you.
If you're interested in history of fortresses it's a must see. If not, going there is a waste of time in my opinion. The way to the hill is not in a very good condition. But you can take there nice photos. 😊
At the moment most of place under renovation. But anyway it a place you have to visit. Amazing view, interesting expozition, nice muzeum.

The most narrow street in Italy 😲
(Translated by Google) When you go to visit Civitella del Tronto, as well as passing through the suggestive streets of the historic center and visiting the fortress, there is also this which is considered the narrowest in Italy. You proceed through a human-sized staircase, and only in the last part laterally, until you emerge close to the square. It's worth doing, even just for a bit of fun! (Original) Quando si va a visitare Civitella del Tronto, oltre che passare nelle suggestive vie del centro storico e a visitare la fortezza c’è anche questa che è considerata la più stretta d’Italia. Si procede attraverso una scalinata a misura d’uomo, e solo nell’ultima parte lateralmente, fino a sbucare vicini alla piazza. Vale la pena di farla, anche solo per divertirsi un po’!
(Translated by Google) Intriguing to move between its walls. The tourist sign indicates it as the narrowest alley in Italy but in the Middle Ages, tiny alleys were built in various places. This primacy is disputed because it is about 66 centimeters wide, only the first few dozen centimeters are a narrowness of about 44 centimeters. Chance led me to pass a few days later in another of these alleys and I can only guarantee the short initial stretch is narrower. G Maps currently allows videos of a maximum of 30 seconds but if they are just a few seconds shorter they sometimes jam. By quickly climbing the stairs I managed to condense it into 27 seconds, including the initial and final panorama and the out of breath since I had already gone up to visit the castle. (Original) Intrigante muoversi tra i suoi muri. Il cartello turistico lo indica come il vicolo più stretto d’Italia ma in epoca medioevale di vicoletti minuscoli ne sono stati costruiti in vari luoghi. Questo primato è contestato perché è largo circa 66 centimetri , solo le prime decine di centimetri sono una strettoia di circa 44 centimetri. Il caso mi ha portato a passare pochi giorni dopo in un’altro di questi vicoletti e solo il breve tratto iniziale lo posso garantire più stretto. G Maps consente, attualmente, video al massimo di 30 secondi ma se sono solo di pochi secondi inferiori a volte si inceppano. Salendo rapidamente le scale ce l’ ho fatta a condensarlo in 27 secondi, includendoci panoramica iniziale, finale ed il fiatone visto che ero già salito a visitare il castello.
(Translated by Google) Indicated as the narrowest street in Italy, but in reality it is only because of the initial narrow street, it then widens, even if not by much. Nice find and now well signposted, if you are nearby it's worth taking a tour, also seeing the village and the castle... a place not suitable for prams and the like. Due to the presence of stairs.. (Original) Indicata come la via più stretta d'Italia, ma in realtà lo è solo per la strettoia iniziale, dopo si allarga, anche se non di molto. Bella trovata ed ora ben indicata, se siete nei paraggi vale la pena farci un giro, visto anche il borgo ed il castello...luogo non adatto alle carrozzine e simili. Per presenza di scalinate..
(Translated by Google) It's very narrow at the beginning, then widens slightly shortly after the entrance. It's located in the historic center on the street parallel to the main street, but it's easy to spot given Civitella's size. A stop for a few photos is a must if you're in Civitella del Tronto. (Original) Veramente stretta nella parte iniziale per poi allargarsi leggermente poco dopo l'ingresso. Trovasi nel centro storico nella strada parallela al corso principale, ma di facile individuazione anche per le dimensioni di Civitella. Un salto per qualche foto se vi trovate a Civitella del Tronto è d'obbligo
(Translated by Google) The Narrowest Street in the World In the heart of the Italian region of Abruzzo, near the entrance to the Civitella del Tronto fortress, lies the narrowest street in Italy, and indeed in the world: the "Roeta," measuring no more than 40 cm wide. This narrow street is not just a tourist attraction; it is a testament to the genius of medieval design. Narrow streets were deliberately built to limit the ability of enemies to storm fortified cities. And on this street, surprises were possible! This narrow passageway appears to have been an ideal location for ambushes and surprise attacks from behind the walls. Today, the "Roeta" is part of Civitella's heritage and attracts visitors who want to experience a piece of the city's unique history. A visit to this street gives you the opportunity to stand in a narrow space, where feet once moved along narrow paths while cities were under threat from enemies. It is a small place that holds a great story of resilience and strategic intelligence. (Original) أضيق شارع في العالم في قلب منطقة أبروزو الإيطالية، وتحديدًا بالقرب من مدخل قلعة سيفيتيلا ديل ترونتو، يكمن أضيق شارع في إيطاليا بل والعالم، "رويتا"، الذي لا يتعدى عرضه 40 سم. هذا الشارع الضيق ليس مجرد معلم سياحي، بل هو شاهد على عبقرية التصميم في العصور الوسطى. فقد كانت الشوارع الضيقة تُبنى عمداً لتحد من قدرة الأعداء على اقتحام المدن المحصنة. وفي هذا الشارع، كانت المفاجآت ممكنة! يبدو أن هذا الممر الضيق كان يعد مكانًا مثاليًا للكمائن والهجمات المفاجئة من خلف الجدران. اليوم، يُعتبر "رويتا" جزءًا من تراث سيفيتيلا، ويجذب الزوار الذين يرغبون في تجربة جزء من تاريخ المدينة الفريد. زيارة هذا الشارع تمنحك فرصة للوقوف في مساحة ضيقة، حيث كانت الأقدام تتحرك في مسارات ضيقة بينما كانت المدن تحت تهديد الأعداء. إنه مكان صغير يحمل قصة عظيمة من الحصانة والذكاء الاستراتيجي.
(Translated by Google) If you find yourself visiting Civitella del Tronto (TE), the little street - although nothing more than a curiosity - is a must-see and fun stop. (Original) Se vi trovate a visitare Civitella del Tronto (TE), la ruetta - sebbene non sia nulla più che una curiosità - è una tappa obbligata e divertente.
(Translated by Google) A charming little road! A short but lovely stop if you're in Civitella del Tronto. (Original) Piccola via suggestiva! Tappa breve, ma carina se siete a Civitella del Tronto

Really nice walk, easy to do with kids
Like many others have stated, if you go in the summer there will be no water and therefore no water falls. Wear sturdy shoes as the paths are steep and rocky. Caves are nice and cool, although not too big. There were advertised prices for entrance but no charge on the day. (Honestly wouldn't be worth paying to see). Food trucks by the car park were actually decent with good food and cold drinks.
Really beautiful spot. But you need proper walking gear to Really enjoy it.
It's a nice place to visit. However when we visite the gorge was completely dry. There can be a waterfall when it has rained some. Parking is easy at the end of the road. You can also have a nice picknick on one of the tables there. I would recommend visiting when it's not too hot outside as the walking can be very demanding. You are able to visit the waterfall and go down tothe vase when it's dry. It is a hazardous descent, so wearing some decent footwear.
Good hike along a riverbed canyon. Today it was dry but still a nice walk and beautiful scenery.
Wonderful place. You can just go down and see the gorges, or have fun crossing them and doing the entire path: takes 3-4 hours and it’s very pleasant. A must go if you are in the region.
Lovely park with plenty of things to see and do. Seasons will have an effect on the park; expect waterfalls during winter/spring.
I found porcupine needles here ,introduced by the romans !

(Translated by Google) A wonderful museum. Intimate, but with a rich collection. In the museum you can see numerous exhibitions that present daily life in the city. Very professional service. When we arrived in town, we thought the museum would be closed. Yet we managed to visit this unique place! Combined ticket with entrance to the fortress (Original) Un museo meraviglioso. Intimo, ma con una ricca collezione. Nel museo si possono vedere numerose mostre che presentano la vita quotidiana in città. Servizio molto professionale. Quando siamo arrivati ​​in città, pensavamo che il museo sarebbe stato chiuso. Eppure siamo riusciti a visitare questo posto unico! Biglietto combinato con ingresso alla fortezza
(Translated by Google) VISITED once again after a few years and it has been enriched with new valuable pieces, my warmest compliments for the care and attention towards each object, Each object certainly has a history and I am sure that the Curator Guido Scesi knows every detail well, I call them objects but they are unique pieces certainly of great value as well as affective, it is a cross-section of a society that no longer exists, thanks Guido for the great and meticulous work done in recent years, bring the past of CIVITELLA!! Raphael (Original) VISITATA ancora una volta dopo alcuni anni e si è arricchita di nuovi pezzi pregiati i miei più vivi complimenti per la cura e l'attenzione verso ogni oggetto, Ogni oggetto ha sicuramente una storia e sono certo che il Curatore Guido Scesi ne conosce bene ogni dettaglio, li chiamo oggetti ma sono pezzi unici sicuramente di grande valore oltre che affettivo è uno spaccato di una società che non esiste più grazie Guido per il grande e meticoloso lavoro svolto in questi anni fai rivivere il passato di CIVITELLA!! Raffaele
(Translated by Google) A small treasure trove of memories of local customs and life. Relics, tools, and clothing of all kinds, divided by era, are housed here. Visiting this small museum takes you back in time. Located in the historic center, at the end of the town. I recommend purchasing a combined ticket to save money and access the fortress and weapons museum at the top of the village. (Original) Piccolo scrigno di memoria delle usanze e della vita locale. Sono custoditi cimeli, attrezzi, indumenti di ogni genere divisi per epoche. Visitando questo piccolo museo si fa un salto nel passato. Ubicato nel centro storico ed alla fine dello stesso. Consiglio di fare biglietto unico in modo tale da risparmiare ed accedere alla fortezza e museo delle armi su in cima al paese.
(Translated by Google) Delightful museum, a real gem, not only is the exhibition curated and tastefully structured, the rooms are made of wood and stone and even more they lead the visitor to immerse themselves in history. The staff is kind beyond measure, the boy who welcomed us was ready with explanations. Varied collection of objects, which will immerse you in the habits and customs of the life of the local noble families, period from 700 to 900. (Original) Museo delizioso, una vera chicca, non solo l'esibizione è curata e strutturata con gusto, gli ambienti sono in legno e pietra e ancor di più portano il visitatore a calarsi nella storia. Il personale è gentile oltre maniera, pronto nelle spiegazioni il ragazzo che ci ha accolto. Collezione di oggetti varia, che vi immergerà negli usi e costumi della vita delle famiglie nobili del luogo, periodo dal 700 al 900.
(Translated by Google) Wonderful place that tells the story of the Civitellese nobility, the sumptuousness of the clothes and jewels once worn by the village noblewomen. In addition to the fortress, a visit here is also highly recommended. (Original) Meraviglioso posto che narra la storia della nobiltà civitellese, la sfarzosità degli abiti e dei gioielli indossati un tempo dalle nobildonne paesane. Oltre alla fortezza consigliatissima una visita anche qui.
(Translated by Google) A small museum with only four rooms, well-organized. It was truly interesting to visit. Very beautiful, congratulations! (Original) Museo piccolino con sole 4 sale, ben allestito. È stato veramente interessante visitarlo. Molto bello, complimenti!
(Translated by Google) Nice, part of the fortress tour. There are period clothes, toys, and everyday objects. The exhibition has 5 rooms that you can explore and thus go back in time and see how people lived and dressed in the past. (Original) Pěkné, součást prohlídky pevnosti. Nachází se zde dobové oblečení, hračky, I předměty denního života. Expozice ma 5 místnosti, které si můžete prohlédnout a tím se vrátit do minulosti a vidět jak se dříve žilo a oblékalo.

(Translated by Google) The clock located above the entrance to the church appears to have been stolen during the night from a church in Campli in medieval times. Inside, the vault was redone, with the loss of all the frescoes: I remember that the light blue color of the robes of the angels and the characters depicted went well with the decidedly white backgrounds. (Original) L'orologio posto sopra l'ingresso della chiesa pare sia stato trafugato nottetempo da una chiesa di Campli in epoca medievale. All'interno la volta è stata rifatta, con la perdita di tutti gli affreschi: ricordo che il colore celeste delle vesti degli angeli e dei personaggi raffigurati ben si abbinava agli sfondi decisamente bianchi.
(Translated by Google) Walking along Corso Mazzini you come across the church of San Francesco which dates back to the 14th century. The interior of the church is welcoming with its interesting Baroque style altar. (Original) Percorrendo il Corso Mazzini incontrate la chiesa di San Francesco che risale al XIV sec. L'interno della chiesa è accogliente con il suo interessante altare in stile barocco.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful church, with its Romanesque style façade embellished with Gothic elements, characterized by the fourteenth-century rose window. The interior has a single nave in Baroque style and a square apse. (Original) Bellissima chiesa, con la sua facciata stile romanico abbellito da elementi gotici, caratterizzata dal rosone trecentesco. L’interno si presenta con un’unica navata in stile barocco e l’abside a pianta quadrata.
(Translated by Google) This church is located in the heart of Civitella's historic center. It can be reached from the main road or from a parallel alley further up, from which a flight of steps leads down to the church. The façade is very beautiful, as are the interiors. (Original) Chiesa ubicata nel bel mezzo del centro storico di Civitella. La si può raggiungere dalla strada principale o da viuzza parallela più su da cui poi attraverso una scalinata si scende ai piedi della stessa. Facciata molto bella come anche gli interni .
(Translated by Google) The church has been restored several times to recover from the damage of various earthquakes. Now it is possible to appreciate its beauty thanks to recent conservative restoration interventions. (Original) La chiesa è stata restaurata diverse volte per recuperarla dai danni dei vari terremoti. Adesso è possibile apprezzare la sua bellezza grazie ai recenti interventi di restauro conservativo.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful on the outside, rather simple on the inside. Located in the center of the village, it is certainly one of the most interesting architectural works in the area. It is definitely worth a visit. (Original) Molto bella nella sua parte esterna, piuttosto sobria nella parte interna. Situata al centro del borgo, è sicuramente una delle opere architettoniche più interessanti del borgo. Merita decisamente una visita.
(Translated by Google) Stunning church... I highly recommend (Original) Chiesa stupenda... consiglio vivamente
(Translated by Google) Beautiful church (Original) Bellissima chiesa
