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

Very beautiful village, well worth a visit

The castle was born as a medieval fortification in the Vezzeno Valley. The manor, surrounded by Guelph battlements, is defended by towers, the entrance one with a drawbridge and the mighty central keep. The Castle of Gropparello, known in ancient times as "Rocca di Cagnano", is a characteristic example of a medieval fortification built to defend the access route to a valley, conceived as a true eagle's nest overlooking the cliff, and therefore absolutely unassailable .. The oldest document known so far about Gropparello dates back to the year 810, and is the deed with which the emperor Charlemagne granted the place as a fief to the then bishop of Piacenza Giuliano II.

The Castle, renovated in the eighteenth century with the elimination of the fortified structures, is a magnificent residential complex. The project is attributed to the architect Luigi Vanvitelli, the same as the Royal Palace of Caserta. We can see a large Italian garden, again of Vanvitellian style, with numerous tree species. The transformation from Castle to Palace was the work of the Marquises and Duke Giovanni Sforza Fogliani. A curiosity: in 1925 it was donated by Clelia Sforza Fogliani d'Aragona to the Holy See and Pope Pius The nuns lived in the castle and attended courses until 1973, the year from which they were then allowed to attend any type of university ;-)

Castell'Arquato, a medieval village and city of art on the first hills of the Val D'Arda, stands majestically thirty kilometers from Piacenza and a little further from Parma. Dominating the hill along the Arda stream, this village keeps its medieval structure intact, offering an authentic experience. Culture, history, natural beauty and gastronomy blend harmoniously in this unique place, enriched by unmissable events.

worth a visit to the castle and the ride in the hills is also beautiful and scenic

Last Castle visited one of the most beautiful and also the most suffered due to the kilometers traveled and the final climb. The Borgo di Vigoleno stands out for the elegance of its forms and for the integrity of the defensive system. Certified among the most beautiful villages in Italy and Orange Flag by the Italian Touring Club, Vigoleno is a perfect example of medieval housing logic. On the imposing crenellated walls, crossed in part by a panoramic walkway, the bulk of the keep stands out. From the main square, where the sixteenth-century fountain is located, going east you reach the Romanesque church of San Giorgio, from the second half of the twelfth century. Vigoleno is a fraction of the municipality of Vernasca, in the province of Piacenza. Located on the crest of a not very high relief, it enjoys a wide panorama of the surrounding valleys and hills …
