Place of historical, architectural, cultural and tourist interest Via Balbi, 2/4, 15040 Piovera AL https://www.castellodipiovera.it/ 3462341141

the castle, now a ruin, was inhabited until the beginning of the 20th century, used as a military hospital during the Great War and then as the headquarters of the local section of the fascist party, still intact throughout the first half of the last century, it was gradually the subject of dispossession and complete abandonment, so as to rapidly facilitate its degradation.

The history of its origin or construction period does not match, but my spontaneous thought was that this complex could be one of the fortress structures of the famous French architect Vauban. But in any case, the Citadelle of Alessandria is also an absolute highlight of architectural architecture as far as fortresses are concerned.

Built in 1300, the castle became a fortress at the hands of the Visconti of Milan. Property of the Balbis of Genoa since the 17th century, it was transformed into a residence by them at the end of the 19th century. Today it is owned by Count Niccolò Calvi di Bergolo who opened it to the public since 1972 with its art workshops, guided tours inside the castle and the educational farm. Among its towers, battlements, moats and stables, our period residence hosts events of all kinds: weddings, historical re-enactments, rallies, concerts, art exhibitions, events for the whole family.

XIV century castle in an unacceptable state of abandonment. It was the residence of the Baglianis until the beginning of the 19th century. In the mid-1800s, the Marquis Carlo Inviziati of Branciforte restored it and made it his home, surrounding it with a vast park and enriching it with works of art. The castle then passed to the Petitti di Roreto and from these to the Paravicini who lived there until the beginning of the 1900s. The castle was then acquired by the Municipality of Alessandria, the current owner. During the First World War it was used as a military hospital and then as the headquarters of the local section of the fascist party. It was gradually plundered and completely abandoned, and rapidly deteriorated. During the flood of 6 November 1994 the water and mud of the Tanaro further damaged the castle. https://www.preboggion.it/CastelloIT_di_AL_Casalbagliano.htm
