    Tips

    April 4, 2021

    Born in the 13th century as a military outpost, the fortress underwent an important transformation in the 15th century thanks to the cultured and enlightened Valerano, lord and regent of the Marquisate of Saluzzo, who transformed it into a sumptuous family residence in conjunction with the establishment of the feud of Manta. It was he who wanted to enrich the Baronial Hall with the beautiful frescoes which today constitute unique testimonies of the chivalric culture of the time. On the south wall, the myth of eternal youth, inspired by a chivalric novel, the "Roman de Fauvel", is depicted by the fountain of youth, surmounted by the god Love.
