Santa Severa — Castello sul Mare
Lazio
Santa Severa's castle stands with its walls almost in the surf, on the site of the Etruscan and Roman port town of Pyrgi — the beach itself wraps right around its base, an unusual pairing of swimming and medieval architecture on this stretch of coast north of Rome. The grounds and beach approach are open and level.
