In the Middle Ages, it had a castle (since destroyed). The Pagani House Museum, the birthplace of Paolo Pagani, an important 17th-century Lombard painter, is open to visitors (a work is on display in the main living room of the Fogazzaro house). He left behind important works, such as the fresco on the vault of the church of San Martino, a masterpiece of the Italian Baroque. Castello was the birthplace of many architects and sculptors who worked in Italy and Europe. Their homes, such as those of the Fontana family and that of Domenico Merlini, can still be seen.
