"Arce" means "rocca" (stronghold) or "sommitta`(summit). The "cinta muraria" (enceinte/fortification wall) was built around the stronghold or summit.
You'll need to check if there was a stronhold/fortress as such on Monte Acero (I have no time to look). If there was then your answer is "Stronghold" - if not, then the walls were simply built around the summit of the mountain for defensive purposes and your answer is "summit"

yes - it has a fortress, therefore the translation should be "Stronghold" (o "Fortress" if you prefer)
