Rocca di Ravaldino.

The Rocca di Ravaldino (English: Castle of Ravaldino) was a castle located inside Forlì.

History

Construction

Built with a square plan and imposing corner towers, this fortress was constructed in 1471 by the architect Giorgio Marchesi Fiorentino, at the request of Pino III Ordelaffi, the lord of Forlì. Later on, it was enlarged with a citadel by Girolamo Riario, the new lord after Pino's son Sinibaldo.

Renaissance

The entrance to the tomb of Qulan Gal could be found here, on a low wall beside the moat. The castle also served as Caterina Sforza's stronghold during both the Battle of Forlì and Cesare Borgia's conquests.
