Serralunga, with its characteristic perched village, is one of the most evocative villages of the Langhe.

Castello di Serralunga d’Alba is a strategic medieval defensive fortress that stands out in the wide surroundings due to its stateliness. This castle with its high tower was used for observation purposes. Fortunately, the fortress never suffered war damage and has always been spared from looting.
The only sieges that the castle undergoes today are those of day tourists. Fortunately, they leave no traces and still carry Castello di Serralunga d’Alba in their hearts as a status symbol. The castle is literally beautiful to look up at. Unfortunately, we were not able to visit the castle from the inside, but the exterior is impressive and makes many visitors dizzy with its awe-inspiring appearance. On the terrace, near the upper entrance gate, you do have a beautiful panoramic view. You see one large patchwork of vineyards, forests and villages.

Very nice old town, with old Castello and wonderful all-round view, nice Caffee wine tasting included.
