Create an itinerary including Rocca Maggiore

Look over the town of Assisi from Rocca Maggiore, a 12th-century castle fortress. Climb the hill to the castle, which appears ruined, but still has two towers open that offer panoramic views. To the west lies the town, and to the east are the mountains of Umbria, part of the strategic defense of this fortress. Take the guesswork out of planning a Assisi vacation by using our trip itinerary maker.

Short walk through about 170 steps from a small alley and we reached this ancient medieval fort. View was spectacular and you can get a awesome beautiful view of the Assisi town and the Basilica.

The castle and museum are closed, but it is worth to hike here and enjoy a spectacular view on Assisi. Also, it is a very calm place as not many tourists go up here.

Steep climb, but worth it for the amazing view. The inside is closed, but still a great place to go to see all of Assisi.
