The castle is located in the center of the village, on a hill overlooking the valley below and part of the town. The presence of a castle or "castrum" is mentioned as early as 1191, but the construction of the current fortress appears to date between 1454-1464 and 1489, that is, between the reign of Filippo Borromeo and that of his sons, Giovanni and Vitaliano. It is known with certainty that in 1493 the building and its grounds were inherited by Ludovico Visconti Borromeo. The old square fortress, on the northern side, features the elegant and solid forms of the original fifteenth-century structure, with beautiful pointed-arch windows softened by terracotta decorations. The castle's current appearance is the result of various renovations over the centuries, the most significant dating back to the eighteenth century. The new reconstruction was commissioned by Giulio Visconti Borromeo Arese.

Built on a hill, it was part of the northern defensive line of the Duchy of Milan

Built as a fortress between the end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th century by order of the Visconti family. Later modified into a noble residence. Very well preserved.

Beautiful castle, unfortunately only visible from the outside as it is private property

The construction of the Jerago castle dates back to the early 13th century and is inextricably linked to the Visconti family of Jerago. This fortress was part of the northern defense line of the Duchy of Milan. In the 18th century, the fortress was converted into a residence.

The Visconti Castle of San Vito, a defensive fortress since the 9th century, became a noble residence in 1448 under the Visconti brothers. The property was divided until 1950 and left to the Visconti Foundation in 1997.
