This is an ancient signal tower dating back to the 12th century. The structure was part of the defensive system of Comacina Island. After the island's destruction by the people of Como (1169), it remained abandoned for centuries. https://fondoambiente.it/luoghi/torre-del-soccorso-detta-del-barbarossa-84041?ldc

In the Middle Ages, it had a castle (since destroyed). The Pagani House Museum, the birthplace of Paolo Pagani, an important 17th-century Lombard painter, is open to visitors (a work is on display in the main living room of the Fogazzaro house). He left behind important works, such as the fresco on the vault of the church of San Martino, a masterpiece of the Italian Baroque. Castello was the birthplace of many architects and sculptors who worked in Italy and Europe. Their homes, such as those of the Fontana family and that of Domenico Merlini, can still be seen.

Throughout the core, on a racing bike, you will have to push (stairs everywhere).

Beautiful castle on Lake Lugano

Seems a bit run down, but is still inhabited.

People actually seem to live in the castle-like settlement of Castel San Pietro (or Castello di Carlazzo) and according to the notices you can also rent there for "workation" stays.

Small castle by the lake

Property of the Italian Environment Fund. The Torre del Soccorso stands with its massive quadrangular mass in Moltrasio stone, easily recognizable among the vegetation that covers Mount Gravona close to the Comacina Island. The construction dominates the panorama of the lake since its construction, which took place between the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, as part of a larger fortified system, which included the castle of Isola Comacina and the defensive structures of Sala, Lezzeno and Cavagnola. Check the opening periods of the property on the FAI website. From the tower, a sheer view of Tremezzina and Comacina Island
