    It is a medieval tower that dates back to the 11th century and was part of a fortified system built between the 12th and 13th centuries. The church of S. Giovanni alle Castelle was part of this structure, destroyed in 1950, today replaced by the chapel of the Madonna della Neve, built by the Alpine Section of Gattinara.

      It is what remains of a square tower attached to an 11th century fortification characterized by several city walls (hence the plural name)

        Getting to the Castelle towers is easy but at the same time you have to prepare for a nice climb which is paved so it is also possible to get there with a racing bike, pay attention to the slopes which are in double figures even if interspersed with a few moments of breathing space
