Description:
Location: Langhe Region - Cuneo - Piemonte, Turin; Northern Italy
Situated in the picturesque hills of the Langhe Region of Piemonte in Northern Italy, this castle was originally built in the 12th century by Marquis Del Carretto, a local feudal lord. It was largely rebuilt in the 16th century and was owned by the House of the Savoy in the 18th century. The castle underwent another renovation completed in 1731 and was sold by Carl Emmanuel III to his minister. The castle was previously owned by the Savoia royal family since 1726. After the second World War it was used as a summer college for the professional agricultural school of Cuneo and is currently under private ownership and has been beautifully restored with its past history and period furnishings carefully preserved.
The castle is currently a private residence, and can be used as a private home or converted to a hotel, resort or spa. It is in excellent order and provides immediately habitable accommodation as a home or vacation getaway.
The position and beauty of this Castle dominates the surrounding village area. It is thought that the Castle was built in the style of a residence rather than for defense purposes and consequently enjoys a park and garden area.
In recent years, the castle was has been modernized and restored. The three-story castle is over 2,700 square meters in size and has 36 rooms. It features a courtyard, chapel, prison and stone Cantinas (wine cellars). The architectural details inside feature high vaulted ceilings with original frescos. There are several fireplaces on each floor and the entire castle has been connected to the local gas utility. A garden and parkland are also located on the site. The castle is also very secure and is equipped with a alarm system linked directly to the police barracks less than 100 yards from the castle.
