Beautiful 🌈 Castle 🏰 of Abbiategrasso 🏘️

Admire the Visconti Castle of Abbiategrasso

Beautiful castle, very large and with large spaces. Home of the Palio di Vigevano on the second weekend of May and October!

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

The Visconti castle in Abbiategrasso is a medieval castle built since 1381. It is one of the first Visconti castles built on a quadrangular base, an architecture that would later become typical of Visconti castles.

Abbiategrasso is the "Milan outpost" on Ticino: located just 29 km from the center of the Lombard capital, it is a good starting point for many excursions given its position and ease of reaching by train. Don't miss the historic center with the Palazzo Visconteo and the Basilica of Santa Maria Nuova.

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.
