Castell'Arquato is located on the first hill of Piacenza and serves as the gateway to the Arda Valley. The village was founded around the 7th century AD; the first written records date back to that period. During the Middle Ages, the village was often the scene of clashes between Guelphs and Ghibellines and the center of disputes between the Scotti and Visconti families. In the modern era, it passed from the Visconti to the Sforza family, whose rule lasted until the 18th century, when the village became part of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza. The village has retained a typically medieval appearance with many places of great interest.

A wonderful stop. Both the church and the baptistery were open, and we were able to enter for a visit. It's worth a detour if you're in the area.

The Pallavicino Marquises' Scipione Castle dominates the hills between Parma and Salsomaggiore Terme and is one of the oldest fortresses in Emilia-Romagna, built before the 11th century to control the salt routes. Inhabited by the same family for centuries, it preserves medieval structures and rooms transformed in later eras, nestled within the historic village of Scipione Castello.

Originally built between the 10th and 11th centuries, the castle was rebuilt in 1153 and expanded several times in the following centuries. With the exception of a few brief periods in the 12th and 14th centuries, the Pallavicino marquises maintained it almost uninterruptedly until their extinction in 1756. Assigned to the Sermattei family, the manor was purchased a few years later by the Landi cousins. Sold in 1882 to the Corazza family, the manor was renovated and transformed into an elegant stately home, rich in frescoes and stucco decorations. Since the early 21st century, the building, along with the surrounding village, has been used as a scattered hotel, with an adjoining farm. SOURCE: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabiano_Castello
