파르자니카‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 동굴

비안차노 마을 중심부에는 오늘날에도 그 역사의 일부가 신비에 싸여 있는 고대 성이 자리 잡고 있습니다. 네 모서리가 네 개의 주요 방향에 맞춰진 정사각형 평면의 건물입니다. 오늘날 그 흔적이 남아 있는 두 개의 성벽이 구조물을 둘러싸고 있으며, 그 중심에는 인상적인 주탑이 솟아 있습니다. 이 성을 베네치아 공화국 시대에 파괴로부터 구한 것은 수아르디 가문의 통찰력이었습니다. 그들은 성벽의 성가퀴를 제거하여 요새가 아닌 거주지처럼 보이게 만들기로 결정했습니다. 그들의 문장은 오늘날에도 성의 입구 포털에 남아 있습니다.

The fortified complex represents one of the best-preserved examples of Lower Medieval military architecture in the province of Brescia. The castle was traditionally called Oldofredi because of the presence in Iseo of this noble Ghibelline family, who were friendly to the Visconti and the Scaligeri and fierce opponents of the Republic of Venice.

Entering Iseo from the north, you cannot fail to notice this majestic and evocative castle

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."

Beautiful castle you have to see

In the center of the village of Bianzano stands an ancient castle whose history is still partly shrouded in mystery.

The Oldofredi Castle is one of the oldest and best preserved in the Brescia area. It stands on an area inhabited since Roman times and takes its name from a noble family from Iseo. It houses some rooms, can be reserved for events, contains a restaurant, the municipal library, some cultural associations and, in the former church of San Marco, the civic hall and the War Museum.
