HISTORICAL NOTE

In the current Piazza dei Giudici there was a castle built by an Altafronte family’s representative on the river Arno bank. The castle was destroyed by the 1333 flood and on its ruins, the new Giudici Palace was reconstructed.

The denomination of the street Via Castello d’Altafronte has got memory of this antique presence. In the ancient age was named Chiasso Iscornino.
