Archaeological site with late Bronze Age ceramics.
In 1968, in the area of the church of S. Maria in Castello, an archaeological excavation carried out by the Italian Institute of Prehistory and Protohistory brought to light interesting finds dating back to the Bronze Age (1900 – 1800 B.C.). The presence of the deposit was reported by Don Domenico Perfetti, pastor of the church of Santa Maria in Castello, who noted that a black archaeological soil was coming to the surface in an area along the slope, rich in figurative and faunal finds.
Today some artifacts are displayed in showcases at the entrance to the town hall and can be visited during the opening hours of the town hall.
Opening hours: By appointment only.
How to get there: 5 km from Tredozio, on the provincial road that runs along the ridge between Tredozio and Rocca S. Casciano.
