Small, very quiet hamlet, characterised by an ancient castle!

Once you reach Monticello, either by dirt road or by road, you can take a break right in front of the church and the old castle!!! In fact, we find a column for bike maintenance next to a fountain

The Parish Church, dedicated to Saints Gervasio and Protasio, was consecrated by Bishop Carlo Bascapè on 6 May 1608, as evidenced by a plaque walled inside, to the left of the presbytery. Currently the facade has two niches with statues of the titular saints.

There is evidence of the presence of a fortification in the village of Nibbiola as early as 1198. Located in the center of the village, in a slightly elevated position, the current castle dates back to the 15th century and shows traces of partial renovations carried out in the 18th century. It is entirely built of brick and after the radical renovation in the 18th century it was transformed into a private residence.

Villanova is a small fraction of the Municipality of Cassolnovo. In addition to this church there is also the castle where Ludovico il Moro is said to have been born. L? building dates back to the century. XIV subsequently restored in 1455 and rearranged by the Gonzagas of Mantua in the sec. XVI, typical rural fortification of the Visconti-Sforza period, with a square layout with a central courtyard, four towers on the corners and an entrance tower with a drawbridge. While the towers and the bodies of buildings have no crenellations, perhaps removed in the arrangement carried out by the Gonzagas, the entrance tower still retains the crenellations and traces of the drawbridge. Even on one of the four corner towers there are remains of a drawbridge. The facades have lowered arch windows and decorations with a geometric motif painted in red and white vertical diamonds. There are wooden balconies on the facade towards the courtyard. Behind the town of Villanova there is also a cemetery in a complete state of abandonment.

The museum displays all the works that Leonardo conceived and created during his life: the drawings that are now kept in dozens of museums and libraries around the world, the notebooks that accompanied his days, full of thoughts and brilliant intuitions, the codices who died after his death from his friends and heirs
