Stock Photo: Castle Of Saint Pierre, Aosta Valley, North-Italy
ID 25077273 © 2circles | Megapixl.com
Perched on a rocky spur, the castle of the Italian village Saint Pierre, seen from Aymavilles on the other side of the E25. The castle predates its first mention in records of 1191, but owes its fairy tale appearance to recent (19th century) additions, especially the turrets and machicolations on the main tower. Today, the building houses the Regional Museum of Natural Science.
