Amazing town castle with a fabulous pasta making experience. This is by far one of the best tourist experiences I’ve had the pleasure of attending with my young family. The drive to the village is challenging with bends, chicanes and steep narrow passes. Beware as you drive the natural beauty of the landscape, seriously idillic property and vantage points are distracting! It’s best to wait for this castle on the top of the hill. Take a deep breath! It gives you an outrageous panoramic view of Tuscan green and terracotta roofs. The village below is exceptionally well kept with quality deli’s and bars. Perfect and relaxed. You must visit the historic pasta factory check for timings and what kind of pasta they are making! #pasta #visititaly #touristintuscany

one of those little known gems in Tuscany with beautiful views
Stunning medieval fortified town very well preserved/restored. Fantastic views/photo opportunities from the open to public ramparts. Lovely gelato see picture of sign. Martelli pasta factory in middle of town gives factory tour if you email Luca in advance. I highly recommend spending half a day here.
The view from the top of the castle is sick!! Such a beautiful place that lets your mind wonder..
Very nice, a lot of multimedia use. Very good also with children.
The Castle was closed and there wasn't any note about the reason of closure. Village centre is small and pretty.
Very friendly receptionist. Eight Euros, but lots of detailed information about the history of the entire area and the castle itself. The views were spectacular. The dungeon realistic. The videos were detailed and clear about the Inquisition and different law codes during the Middle Ages. It was so steep, that I got dizzy looking down the walls. Lots of children playing in the streets and plaza and alleys. Typical narrow streets with restaurants tucked into every corner. A surprising number of free public parking places just outside the castle walls. The road up to this castle from Ponsacco was six kilometers long, curvy and narrow and beautiful at every turn. The personal tour could take half-a-day if a person read everything offered on all the walls and the brochures. A gold mine of information on the history of the area, as it all affected the castle in Lari. After that visit, we returned to our favorite restaurant, Il Rosso della Paola, halfway down the hill.
Charming place with multimedia that tell the story
