Description

Castel Tonini is the fortress that overlooks the town of Buti and protects the historic core of the old castle town, located right on the Rio Magno.
The building, despite repeated tampering, one hand still has the characteristics of grim medieval castle with its massive wheels and high, the other reveals its original aesthetic ambitions and residential, as evidenced by a nice set of double windows with marble the distinctive Gothic style.
The historic village that develops behind Castel Tonini, once enclosed and now called the castle, is bounded by an access door and characterized by roads and buildings that, despite significant restructuring, testify to the splendor of ancient fortification.
