ピアーニコの洞窟・トップ2

石畳の道の途中、自転車が上に掛けられた家の可愛らしい入り口があります

ビアンツァーノの村の中心部には、その歴史が今日でも部分的に謎に包まれた古い城がそびえ立っています。それは、四隅が四つの主要な方角に整列した四角形の建物です。今日ではその痕跡が見られる二重の城壁が構造物を囲んでおり、その中心には印象的な主塔がそびえ立っています。 この城をヴェネツィア共和国時代に破壊から救ったのは、スアルディ家の洞察力でした。彼らは、要塞ではなく住居にできるだけ似せるために、城壁の胸壁を取り除くことを決定しました。彼らの紋章は、今日でも城の入り口のポータルに残っています。

Small private island with a castle that cannot be visited...

The current Terzi Castle has very ancient origins, dating back to the Early Middle Ages. It was originally a fortified Benedictine monastery, destroyed by Charlemagne's Frankish army in the 8th century. Rebuilt as a castle in the 9th/10th century, it belonged to the Mozzo family and then to the Suardo family, who extended their dominion over the entire valley, also owners of the Bianzano Castle. In the 15th century, following the imposition by the Venetian Republic of the demolition of every stronghold present in the territory of the Serenissima, the Suardo family, in order to avoid its destruction, made it a stately home. Finally, the property passed to the Terzi family, who sold it in 1930, by then completely abandoned and in ruins, to the British countess Winifred Terni de Gregory. From 1937 to 1945, she renovated the property as it appears today, including the gardens. Currently the entire complex is temporarily rented for important events or weddings.

13th century castle of the Suardo Counts. Every year, in August, there is a historical reenactment: "In 1367, Giovanni di Baldino Suardo and Bernarda Visconti, daughter of Bernabò, Lord of Milan, recently married, arrived in the village of Bianzano where the Castle that their father Baldino had given them stood. The people of Bianzano welcomed the couple with great celebrations, frescoing the atrium and entrance portal of the Castle in their honor. The Bianzano branch of the Suardo family was born, and is still alive today. The reenactment, therefore, stages the arrival of Giovanni Suardo and Bianca Visconti at the Castle and the celebrations that ensued."
