The comune consists of three small towns: Castrocaro, Terra del Sole and Pieve Salutare. Terra del Sole, founded as a 16th century fortress by Cosimo I de' Medici, is believed to occupy the site of the ancient city of Solona, which lends its name to the town Tierra del Sole.[2]

There's a spa and the Festival Musical of Castrocaro, featuring new singers.
