San Leo, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, is a small village located in the heart of the Montefeltro countryside on an enormous rocky outcropping, which cannot be scaled from any side.
San Leo has a great view of the surrounding mountains, all the way down to the sea.
The highlight of this place is the stunningly located Fort, sited on a large rock above the village.
The fortress housed many people of great importance including Dante and Saint Francis of Assisi.
Taken by the Papal States in 1631, it became a horrible prison where, among others, the Count of Cagliostro (1795) and Felice Orsini (1844) lived out their last days.
