Castello di Spedaletto
Where
SP53, Pienza (Siena)
The complex was built during the twelfth century and belonged to Hospital of Santa Maria della Scala in Siena. During the fifteenth century restoration work was carried out that modified the original appearance of Medieval castle, giving it the appearance of a gràngia (fortified farm) with antiporta and walls. In the nineteenth century a building was added to house the warehouse. At the castle is the Church of San Niccolò in Spedaletto, with an attached canon.
