    It is possible to climb to the top of the main tower (42 meters high) and see the whole village from above

    a bit of history:

    Built by Luchino Visconti between 1342 and 1349, the fortress passed to the Scotti family in 1404, then to Filippo Visconti. In 1466 it became part of the heritage of the Sforza family who held it until 1707, the year in which it was incorporated into the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza.
