This castle, constructed as one of the Republic of Siena's defence bastions, was transformed into a residence in the 1500s by its owner Mino Celsi. The 16th-century restoration is thought to have been carried out by Baldassarre Peruzzi,who was certainly involved in the design of the circular chapel and the reorganisation of the terracing walls the back wall, in line with the iron railings, is a large semi-circular fish pool, surrounded by a low balustrade that doubles as a belvedere.
