Susans Castle, a private castle and venue for ceremonies and banquets, was probably the site of a Roman castrum, later a strategic medieval fortress. Susans Castle was first mentioned in 1031 as "Suzan's villa". Already subject to the Church of Aquileia, the fiefdom was assigned to Tommaso di San Daniele in 1275. In 1304, the manor was enlarged and strengthened by the new owners Federico and Asquino di Varmo who worked to "raise the castle in a larger and more beautiful form". Involved in numerous wars, the fortress passed from the Varmo Pers to the lords of Colloredo Mels. Destroyed and rebuilt several times, the manor was built more or less in its current form, on a different site from the one previously occupied by the medieval fortress, in the second half of the seventeenth century, by Count Fabrizio di Colloredo Mels, Marquis of Santa Sofia, Prior of the Order of Santo Stefano in Lunigiana and major steward of the court of Tuscany, who wanted the castle as an elegant residence not detached from the context of the architectural tradition of the court.

The small church of San Mauro stands on the river terrace of the Corno river and is surrounded by a pebble wall that encloses the old cemetery. The current building, from the sixteenth century, is the result of renovations and expansions of a previous church dating back to the 12th-13th centuries, as evidenced by the frescoes found inside. The building was destroyed by the Turks at the end of the 15th century and rebuilt shortly thereafter. Already a branch of the Pieve di Rive, the church has a rectangular hall with an exposed truss roof and a presbytery with a ribbed cross vault. The atrium, with two lowered arch entrances, and the sacristy are from a later period. Inside, on the right wall is the oldest fresco, dating back to around the 12th-13th centuries, depicting Christ the Youth; on the walls and on the counter-façade instead the frescoes with the Last Judgement, stories of the life of Christ, Madonna with Child, Saints and Coronation of the Virgin are from the end of the 14th century or the beginning of the following century and are attributable to the post-Vitale Friulian school. The high altar is dedicated to San Mauro while the small side altar is dedicated to the Madonna. Over the years, various sculptors and painters worked on the internal and external decorations such as Andrea Urbani and Zuan Contieri.

The Castello d'Arcano Superiore, magnificently preserved and still inhabited, still has something magical about it today due to the isolated site where it was built. It originally stood near the small church of San Mauro, on the banks of the Corno. For defensive and strategic reasons, it was later rebuilt in the place where it still stands today. The structural expansions probably date back to the 13th century. It is certain that from the 12th century it belonged to the Tricano family, hereditary marshals and gonfalonieri of the Patriarch of Aquileia. The castle still presents its suggestive medieval appearance today, with the crenellated Guelph curtain walls, the characteristic double tower and the mighty keep with, at the top, an elegant row of late Romanesque mullioned windows. Inside there is a small room frescoed by Andrea Urbani and various rooms with fireplaces and portals created by Raffaello de' Raffaelli.

Curiosity Castle d'Arcano was the scene of a mysterious event that occurred in the 17th century, which saw Francesco d'Arcano stab his wife to death out of jealousy, who was found walled up at the beginning of the 20th century during restoration work. www.consorziocastelli.it
