Metola Tower

It isn't a tower... it's mere sky

When I was a child, dreaming to live in a castle on the top of a mountain, there was always a high, big, white tower... like this:











It's Metola Castle.
No one knows when it was built; the early information is from XI century. It's ruined many time ago, and just only the tower survived. Recently well restored, with a small drawbridge also, we can only imagine the life and the people who lived there.





Last but not least, here was born - in 1287 - the blessed Margherita della Metola. She was blind... she haas never seen the sky around her... But she has known the real Sky...
