The village of the towers

Mosciano Sant'Angelo - Mosciano Sant'Angelo is an ancient medieval village in the province of Teramo which rises in a position overlooking the lower valley of the Tordino river, among extensive vineyards and olive groves. The town has a characteristic historic center that still preserves the remains of the defensive walls built in medieval times and is famous for the presence of several towers.

The Cardelli Tower has a hexagonal plan, is decorated with corbels and round-arched windows and is set between the seventeenth-century buildings, while the Torre Marini has a square plan with two windows on the main side and corbels on the top, next to it we find a Medici house decorated with large arches. There is still the Belvedere Tower, also with a square plan and is identified by the corbels lightened by curves and not by edges and finally we have Torre Zeda which is linked to the gateway to the old city and unlike the others has a plant circular. The Town Hall dates back to the sixteenth century and is decorated with a rectangular tower, while the religious buildings are made up of the Convent of the Seven Brothers built around the 14th century; it has a sober facade decorated with a small rose window and a large square bell tower, the church of the Addolorata, the church of S. Antonio Abate, and not to forget the church of San Michele Arcangelo also dating back to the '300.
