On the right side, there is a high tower with an arch at the center acute that guarantees access to the country; above it is placed a polychrome earthenware and circular in shape, which brings along the edge a garland of leaves and fruits and in the inner part of the arme accounts Castagneto (badge della Gherardesca).
