Castello Brown is a unique location in the bay of Portovino, overlooking the legendary Piazzetta surrounded by prestigious villas. The castle is surrounded by a Mediterranean garden full of flowers, roses, and pergolas. Inside, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Ligurian Sea, creating an enchanting experience.

It was built in 1167 by order of the Genoese consuls on a hilltop in a dominant and panoramic position, as a garrison and outpost in the lands of the Counts of Lavagna, who were hostile to Genoa. In 1178, the decision was made to create the village below, which was then surrounded by walls—of which only a few traces remain today—with three gates and watchtowers. During its first decades of existence, the Castle endured sieges, conquests, and reconstructions during the struggles between Genoa and the local feudal families, the Fieschi and Malaspina. With the expansion of the village into the coastal plain and the end of the feudal conflicts, it lost importance and was gradually abandoned until, starting in 1575, some parts of it were demolished as a "gathering place for innovators and exiles." Today, all that remains is the upstream tower with its terrace, where the Genoese flag flies, two water cisterns that were used to ensure survival during sieges, and a fortified parade ground. The castle is now privately owned but is always open for guided tours for small groups. (c) https://www.comune.chiavari.ge.it/it/vivere/castello

Roccatagliata has an ancient history, which begins in pre-Roman times, when the area was certainly inhabited by Ligurians. After the Roman period, Roccatagliata was occupied by the Lombards. During the Middle Ages it was a fiefdom of the Fieschi family. The construction of a castle dates back to this period, of which the ruins remain on the hill above the village (today the area is an archaeological park). The importance of Roccatagliata was linked to the fact that it was located on a route very frequented by caravans of merchants who headed from the coast towards the Po Valley. Every year on the day of San Lorenzo a medieval festival takes place, in which the inhabitants of the village dress in period clothing to recall the period in which Roccatagliata was a village of great importance.

Rapallo Castle is actually a defensive fortress. It is, however, a gem of Rapallo and worth a visit.
