Climbing the steps from the panoramic viewpoint of Monte Castello you reach the hermitage of Santa Domenica.

Monselice Castle is a complex of buildings composed of four main nuclei, plus a fortress, all built and renovated between the 11th and 16th centuries. The oldest part, on the right as you enter the main doorway into the Corte Grande, is the Castelletto, with the adjoining Romanesque house, built between the 11th and 12th centuries. On the left stands the massive 13th-century Ezzelino Tower. In the center, Palazzo Marcello was built in the 15th century as a connecting nucleus between the two existing buildings. At the top of the hill stands a fortress built by Ezzelino III da Romano on the orders of Emperor Frederick II of Swabia. Finally, the castle library, located on the large esplanade in front of the Ezzelino Tower, was created in a pre-existing building from the late 16th century.

In Monselice, walking along the Via del Santuario, towards the Jubilee Sanctuary of the Seven Churches, you can see Villa Nani-Mocenigo on the left, a sumptuous late Renaissance building (late 16th, early 17th century) with a scenic perspective staircase. On the surrounding wall there are dwarves, sculptures that allude to the name of the patrician family that commissioned the villa. Facing them is the elegant stables building.

A typical Italian small town. Fits the holiday mood.

Simply fantastic The view from Calaone is very beautiful

Square in the historic center

In times of need... a public toilet can be of help 😁

The castle of Monselice is a characteristic and fascinating complex of complex buildings, added in different eras by different owners: the 11th century Romanesque House and the 12th century Castelletto, which constitute the oldest and most medieval nucleus; the massive 13th century defensive tower, commissioned by Ezzelino III da Romano who established his government here; the 15th century Palazzo Marcello, in Renaissance style, built as a connection between the two previous buildings, when the complex was converted from military use to residential use by the noble Venetian Marcello family; finally the 16th century Ca' Marcello Library. From the 19th century the complex fell into a state of progressive degradation and internal dispossession, culminating in the use of the castle for military purposes during the Great War, until it was inherited by Count Vittorio Cini, who in 1935 began a radical restoration of the buildings. This was followed by the restoration of the internal rooms, purchasing vast collections of weapons, furnishings, ornaments, utensils and tapestries, strictly consistent with the medieval and Renaissance environments. The castle houses one of the most beautiful and richest armories in the Veneto. It is also called Cini Castle. In 1981 it was purchased by the Veneto Region and opened to visitors ((see link for opening times and prices). https://www.castellodimonselice.it https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castello_di_Monselice
