アオスタバレーの洞窟・トップ20

Seen only from the outside, very very beautiful!

summer residence of Queen Margherita of Savoy

Visited today, only possible with a guided tour! Our guide was very friendly and translated the tour into English for us (it's normally in Italian, information panels are in English, and the information booklet is in German). We spent over an hour in the building and were able to look around at our leisure. The building was completed in 1904. For me, a worthwhile visit. €10 per person €7 concession €3 pupils/students

Now the castle is no longer owned by the Caracciolo family but has been purchased by the Autonomous Region of Aosta valley.

Nice walk for families....

Castle that once belonged to the Italian royal family, now open to the public. It is worth a visit, an easy and pleasant path brings you here from the village of Gressonay in any period of the year

Quart Castle is currently (January 2025) undergoing conservation work. The work should be completed by summer 2025.

The origins of Introd Castle date back to the 12th century. It was built according to a simple structure with a square central keep surrounded by a fence. Pierre Sarriod d'Introd had it enlarged in 1260, followed by subsequent modifications in the 15th century that rounded off the castle. Two fires, the first in the second half of the 19th century and the second in the early 20th century, made restoration work necessary. In the latter case, they were completed by architect Jean Chevalley and commissioned by the then owner, Knight Gonnella. Opposite the castle is a Renaissance-style attic. It is made entirely of wood and has two splendid wrought iron gates. Nearby is the stable called Ôla. Today, the Introd Castle is owned by the Counts Caracciolo of Brienza and is managed by the Grand-Paradis Foundation 1 . The living room is decorated with frescoes. Near the ceiling are scenes each representing a different tree, above which is trompe l'oeil wallpaper.
