Thankful Thursdays~The Watch Post ~ San Marino, Italy

Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

 In San Marino, Italy the 13th century tower stands on the highest point of San Marino.  The first tower (there are three) or Guanita guards the San Marino's hilltop.  This was once the former watch post and shelter of the early inhabitants of Mount Titano. You can see where the soldiers watched over the city!

That's beautiful, Dorie.  I am planning on visiting Italy by the end of next year for my 40th birthday.  I can't wait to see these things in person.

Hi Dorie, Yet another gorgeous photo from Italy.  I love the bbeautiful countryside, and what a great vantage point for a watchtower.  The tunnel (or gate) below is interesting - what's on the other side?
