The Tower of Tentennano or Rocca di Tentennano is the medieval tower that dominates the village of Rocca d'Orcia.
Built as an extension of the rocky spur, and surrounded by several walls, the Rocca di Tentennano is the only fortress in the Val d'Orcia that in the Middle Ages has never been conquered by anyone.

Interesting overview, although a bit surprisingly ending on the right side. Cheers Peter

What happens there on the right end?

If I had not been so lazy this year I would have also seen Pienza, Montepulciano and Val d'Orcia.
But I had a chance to celebrate a hot Ferragosto 2023 :-)
... more maybe later.

@Peter and Jorg: the panorama was taken from an opening between the walls of the Rocca Aldobrandesca, which is located in front of the Tentennano Tower.
Both to the right and to the left the too close walls could be seen. And this, in my opinion, is the best view of the Tower.
@Hans-Jürgen: I really want to see your views of Ferragosto 2023.
