4 parasta linnaa lähellä Cameri

Il Castello di Barengo sijaitsee kukkulan laella kylän takana, kohotetussa asemassa ympäröivän tasangon yläpuolella, pitkin tietä, joka alun perin yhdisti Via Francigenan Sesia-joen kahlauspaikkoihin. Alkuperäinen 1400-luvun rakennus on kokenut lukuisia muutoksia ja muokkauksia vuosisatojen aikana, ja se oli jo osittain raunioina 1800-luvun alussa. Vuonna 1849 linnoitukselle tehtiin restaurointi, joka muutti sen alkuperäistä rakennetta. Ensimmäisen maailmansodan jälkeen kiinteistö siirtyi kreivi Gaudenzio Tornielli di Borgolavezzarolle, joka antoi arkkitehti Carlo Nigralle tehtäväksi rakentaa kompleksi uudelleen keskiajan tyylikaanonien mukaisesti. Myöhemmin lisärestaurointeja suoritti Borolin perhe, nykyiset omistajat. Uudelleenrakennuksista huolimatta alkuperäisestä rakenteesta on kuitenkin jäljellä useita todisteita, kuten rintamuurien seinät, perustukset ja jotkut sisäänkäynnin ovet.

The castle was strengthened by his successors Galeazzo II (1354-1378) and Gian Galeazzo (1378-1402). Works and repairs were done over the years by Francesco Sforza. His son, the duke Galeazzo Maria, carried out the major transformation of the building. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visconti-Sforza_Castle_(Novara)
