Castle ruins of Castello Baradello. Once a large castle complex, there is now a tower and a few remains of the wall. There are some display boards with explanations, unfortunately only in Italian, no English translation. Apparently the castle should be open Saturday and Sunday, there are guided tours, but possibly only in summer. Unfortunately it was closed with us.

The Baradello Castle, symbol of the Spina Verde Park, is a fortification built by the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa on the remains of older buildings. The Castle was built in a strategic place and, thanks to its elevated position over the city, it allowed the control of the whole surrounding area. It was dismantled after 1526 by the Spanish invaders.
