    At the site of the castle described in his "Confessions of an Italian":
    Returning to the widening of Via Castello, visitors can immediately reach the entrance to the Fratta Castle Park. A tree-lined path leads to the first open-air area, known as the "cortino." Here, visitors can see the remains of the first defensive structure commissioned by the bishops of Concordia around the 9th century: a rectangular tower that today houses the trunk of a tall walnut tree at the center of its foundations. Housed in an old 15th-century house, the Fratta Castle Museum opens onto the "cortino" with a beautiful portico featuring three pointed arches. Inside the museum, equipped with all the latest technology, you can admire one of the most interesting collections of medieval and Renaissance ceramics in the region. It also features a welcoming room that recreates, with period objects and mementos related to Ippolito Nievo, the castle kitchen described in Confessions of an Italian. The upper rooms of the museum complex house restoration workshops and the civic collection of printed works relating to the writer.

      Seen in the colours of November, on a splendid sunny day, the park is a marvel.
