The hilltop center of Formia gathered around the historic Torre Caetani.
Maranola preserves alleys, stone houses, and a direct connection with the Monti Aurunci. The Torre Caetani is one of the most recognizable landmarks of the village and is designated by the Municipality as a symbolic place of its history and identity.
The tower's courtyard hosts events on specific dates, but it should not be considered always open to visitors. The village can be explored from the outside with attention to its residential spaces; to enter the tower, it is necessary to check for an official opening.
