Monte Cerignone - The Fortress

 

Montecerignone was an important place already during the Malatesta period. After the defeat of the Malatesta family in 1464, the fortress was conquered by the Montefeltro family.  The Fortress is located over the castle and arranged on three floors. The basement consists of a large hall with barrel vault, made of bricks and terracotta paving. The first floor is accessible through an internal or external stone staircase. From the loggia, it is possible to reach the conference room covered by cross vaults. The hanging garden is topped by the statue of Uguccione della Faggiola. The main floor includes a conference hall, illuminated by Renaissance windows during the day, and visitors can enjoy an impressive view of the Mount Carpegna, Begni Square and the Valley of the Conca River. The Fortress of Montecerignone can be rented for different types of events.
