14th century castle, open to the public; curious are the remains of black plaster on the facade dating back to when it was entirely painted black on the occasion of the mourning for the death of Napoleon

Built in 1300, the castle became a fortress at the hands of the Visconti of Milan. Property of the Balbis of Genoa since the 17th century, it was transformed into a residence by them at the end of the 19th century.
Today it is owned by Count Niccolò Calvi di Bergolo who opened it to the public since 1972 with its art workshops, guided tours inside the castle and the educational farm.
Among its towers, battlements, moats and stables, our period residence hosts events of all kinds: weddings, historical re-enactments, rallies, concerts, art exhibitions, events for the whole family.
