Serravalle
The town is placed as a crossroads between Badia Prataglia and Camaldoli; it preserves a quadrangular tower, the remains of XI century castle.
The village – on a short ridge in a landscape where meadows, coppice and chestnut woods is alternating – retains a quadrangular tower, the remains of an 11th century castle. The tower dominates the wooded valley of the Archiano stream, which descends from the Passo dei Mandrioli to Bibbiena. The origin of Serravalle is to be found in its dominant position and its proximity to the crossroads between Badia Prataglia and Camaldoli. The old castle was to serve as a sentry. In 1305 Serravalle was further fortified and equipped with a formwork and tower.
