Amelia — Mura Poligonali Walk

Umbria

Amelia's massive polygonal walls, built of huge unmortared limestone blocks, are among the oldest fortifications in Italy, predating the Romans by centuries. A path circles the base of the walls outside the modern town, giving a close-up view of the stonework and the olive terraces beyond.
