at 10mm, 5 sec f/10.0, ISO 100, tripod. San Miniato, Italy.

San Miniato, Pisa ... febbraio 2021 ... Sulla sommità del più alto dei tre colli che compongono la città di San Miniato tra il 1217 e il 1223 Federico II di Svevia fece costruire una rocca a completamento delle opere difensive già intraprese da Ottone I. La Rocca di Federico II insieme alla Torre di Matilde, attuale campanile della cattedrale, e alla torre delle Cornacchie (abbattuta nel XVIII secolo) erano i fulcri della fortificazioni della città. La posizione strategica della torre consentì, in epoca medievale, di porre un controllo sul transito tra Firenze e Pisa e lungo la via Francigena. Al suo interno, secondo una tradizione, sarebbe stato accecato Pier della Vigna, già segretario dell'imperatore e poi caduto in disgrazia sotto accuse di tradimento o di corruzione. Il 20 luglio 1944 la costruzione fu minata dalle truppe tedesche in ritirata e tre giorni dopo la torre che aveva sfidato secoli di intemperie e di incuria era rasa al suolo. Fedelmente ricostruita nel 1958 per opera dell'architetto Renato Baldi e dell'ingegnere Emilio Brizzi la torre è oggi aperta al pubblico e rimane il simbolo indiscusso della cittadina ...

More than 700 years of control of the territory and then being knocked down by the destructive fury of the Germans, a beautiful recovery of territorial workers and brought back to new life, I visited San Miniato years ago and I was struck by the country for its beauty and for its development in the crest of the hill.
I don't know if you have images of the square with the palaces "frescoed" I would like to see how you immortalized it knowing your skill in your compositions 8-)
I ottimo the pdr with a gloomy sky then blue, congratulations Simone :-)

@ Francesco
San Miniato, a place that I loved
a real pearl of what is considered, improperly, minor Tuscany!
@ Corrado
@ Stefano
@ Loris
I don't know if you have images of the square with the buildings "frescoed" I would like to see how you immortalized it
