Civitella Ranieri Castle
At Umbertide, in a panoramic position over the Assino valley, sits the castle of Civitella Ranieri. The Castle takes its name from the citadel that Umberto's son Raniero, brother of William, Duke of Monferrato, built there in 1078.
The facade of the complex is dominated by the two lateral cylindrical towers and is characterized, as well as other parts of the Castle, by slender brackets that enclose a walkway once used for patrols. Instead the square keep is in the northeastern side .
Behind the castle is the courtyard which is accessed through three doors on the back of the building.
