Fortress of Girifalco Tours

Fortress of Girifalco played a key defensive role over the years. Now a historic site, you can just imagine some of the spectacles its fortified walls have witnessed.

Fortress of Girifalco is a worthwhile place to begin discovering Cortona Old Town. This history-filled fortress is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Pencil in time for other attractions like Villa Bramasole, Piazza della Repubblica, and Signorelli Theatre to really enjoy what the area has to offer.
