Felino Castle is located in the hills between the Parma and Baganza rivers in Emilia, a manor surrounded by a wide, deep moat and defended by imposing bastions. You will enter an elegant and charming atmosphere in the interior rooms and enchanting outdoor spaces, where summer events can be held, illuminated by the vibrant light of torches and the romantic glow of the moon. The main courtyard is accessed via a bridge over a wide moat. The bridge, now fixed but a drawbridge until the 19th century, was the castle's last defense against invaders. The dark bronze door, once opened, reveals a bright, luminous courtyard overlooked by porticoes and galleries that, over time, have replaced the ancient accesses to the patrol walkways. The high walls, defensive towers, and mighty keep are surrounded by a lawn whose position and shape resemble a terrace overlooking the hills and the plains stretching below the castle. Today, after over twenty years of careful restoration, it can be admired in all its splendor. Its nighttime illumination is so evocative and powerful that it can be seen from kilometers away.

definitely for the Votigno nucleus which repays you for the climbs while for the Canossa castle what can I say.... to enjoy a wonderful view you have to climb up the tower which remains after centuries of abandonment on the spur of the hill but after the climbs done with the bike, which often reach 10%, the desire is not always left.

It was built around 940 by Adalberto Azzo. Known for having been the site of the "Pardon of Canossa": in the midst of the Investiture War, on 27 January 1077, Pope Gregory VII absolved Emperor Henry IV from excommunication in the presence of Countess Matilda and Abbot Hugh of Cluny.

The name of the castle stems from the term “Torciara”, literally “wine press”, as in the Middle Ages, this area this area was renowned for its vineyards and olive tree groves. Between 1448 and 1460, “condottiero” Pier Maria II de’ Rossi, a powerful lord of these lands, ordered the construction of this complex on a preexisting fortified building. The structure had to fulfill a double role, a dichotomy of sense and function. On the one hand, it was a military and defensive stronghold for the control of the underlying valley. On the other hand, however, it was the cradle of his love for Bianca Pellegrini di Arturo. Inside, the castle the decorations of the lunettes and of the rib vaults pay homage to the story of Pier Mattia and Bianca Pellegrini.
