Rivalta Castle
Among the castles in Italy that host the Dutch royal family, Rivalta Castle is where Princess Margaret of England also stayed. It is located in Emilia and is among the most beautiful tourist itineraries in Val Trebbia, a motorcyclist's paradise.
You can see it on the right of state road 45, when before Rivergaro you start to climb towards Bobbio and Mount Penice and then dive towards Genoa and the sea.
Today, thanks to the recovery and enhancement of the entire complex, the Rivalta Castle is a sumptuous residence. Surrounded today by a thick tree-lined garden, a sumptuous noble residence often chosen by the royals of England for a quiet, aristocratic holiday, the Rivalta Castle was, in times gone by, one of the most important military bastions of western Emilia.
