    Hiking

    The Malaspina di Massa castle, in addition to being one of the largest Tuscan fortified complexes, can be considered almost an open-air museum of the various stages of development of fortified architecture which are particularly well identifiable here. The whole complex has recently been reopened to the public after years of restoration.

    Hiking

    The mighty Malaspina castle/fortress dominates the center of the city of Massa from the top of one of the rocky hills that end the valleyi of the Frigido stream. The toponym 'Massa' is high and easily identified in Tuscany; its original meaning was 'extensive landholdings'.
