Tips

MARCO

December 29, 2023

The Castle, renovated in the eighteenth century with the elimination of the fortified structures, is a magnificent residential complex. The project is attributed to the architect Luigi Vanvitelli, the same as the Royal Palace of Caserta. We can see a large Italian garden, again of Vanvitellian style, with numerous tree species. The transformation from Castle to Palace was the work of the Marquises and Duke Giovanni Sforza Fogliani. A curiosity: in 1925 it was donated by Clelia Sforza Fogliani d'Aragona to the Holy See and Pope Pius The nuns lived in the castle and attended courses until 1973, the year from which they were then allowed to attend any type of university ;-)
