The restaurant at the Fortezza Medicea di Volte is one of the strangest restaurants in the world, and certainly for Italy, which has it’s fair share of unique Italian restaurants.
But it’s not strange just because it’s in a fortress, but especially because this is still a state prison and the waiters serving you are the current inmates.
Travel + Leisure says it’s harder to book a meal here than at the “Masa” restaurant in New York.
The fortress restaurant is in Tuscany, in Volterra and is part of the fortress that overlooks the town.
The building is divided into the old and “new” parts, with the latter being constructed in the 15th century by Lorenzo il Magnifico.
Dining at the fortress restaurant is one of the few opportunities you will have to see the fortress from the inside and Il Turista.
