Firmafede Fortress

Also known as the Citadel, Firmafede Fortress stands on the edge of the town walls in Sarzana’s old town centre. It was built by Lorenzo de’ Medici between 1487 and 1492, on top of the ruins of previous fortifications. Thanks to a number of restoration initiatives, the fortress is capable of welcoming visitors once again. It is now a cultural hub that hosts numerous prominent activities, including national events.
