    The castle of Roccalanzona was a medieval manor, the remains of which stand on a spur of ophiolitic rock on the border between the Ceno valley and the Dordone valley, near Roccalanzona, a hamlet of Medesano, in the province of Parma.
    The castle, probably built around the tenth century, appears for the first time in a document of 1028 where it was listed among the possessions of Ildegarda, wife of the Lombard nobleman Odone, sold to the rector of the church of San Pietro di Paderna; [2] in The deed mentions "Rocha Petraluizoni cum portione castro et Capella seu tutti ibi habente", testifying to the existence of a place of worship near the manor, which was demolished in 1739.
