Porta Amerina (also called Belvedere Tower) with its characteristic two arches is what remains of the ancient fortified complex of Montecastrilli, together with the Medieval Gate.
The gate stands on the cliff a short distance from the striking bell tower of the Church of San Nicolò with a view that sweeps over the countryside towards the Amerino and looks in the direction of Farnetta and the ancient Church of San Lorenzo in Nifili.
A glance from the terrace allows one to admire this beautiful Umbrian countryside and gives a sense of what was, in the Middle Ages, the fortified complex of Montecastrilli.
