    The enchanting fortified village of Monteveglio, once the most important and impregnable stronghold of Matilda in the area, stands together with the ancient Abbey of Santa Maria Assunta on the top of a hill overlooking the valley.

    The origins of the Castle date back to around the year 1000 and over the course of time the fortification has experienced alternating events of conquest, destruction and reconstruction, particularly during the period of struggle between the cities of Bologna and Modena which competed for domination here.
