モンカルボの洞窟・トップ9

Frassinello Castle, located in the Monferrato area of Alessandria, has ancient origins linked to its defensive function against the Saracens, with the first official mentions dating back to the 11th century (a diploma from Henry III). Characterized by a C-shaped structure, it was owned by the Counts of Nemours and underwent significant neo-Gothic renovations in the 19th century, preserving a frescoed noble wing.

Nestled among centuries-old trees, Camino Castle dominates the ancient village from above and contributes to one of the most easily recognizable hilltop profiles of the Lower Monferrato.

Building kept in perfect condition.

Impressive.

Place of historical, architectural, cultural and tourist interest SP29, 19, 14030 Montemagno AT https://www.comune.montemagno.at.it/it/point-of-interest/castello-di-montemagno-o-dei-conti-calvi-di-bergolo 014163583

Around 1900, the extremely wealthy entrepreneur, financier, art collector and patron Riccardo Gualino (1879–1964) began building a neo-Romanesque-neo-Gothic castle in a commanding position over the town. The architect of the building was the engineer Vittorio Tornielli. In 1918, the Castello di Cereseto became one of the residences of the Turin family, where lavish parties were celebrated with guests from the Piedmontese business and financial world, from the Agnelli to the Sella. The fort was inhabited by the family until the second half of the 20th century and is therefore well preserved.

Montemagno Monferrato is a municipality in the province of Asti. The center of the town is characterized by the Montemagno castle and the remains of the church of Saints Vittore and Corona, built in Romanesque style.

I recommend taking a walk on the path behind the walls, with a view of the surrounding hills, and it is possible to have a look at the castle in its entirety, even without entering it
