This is not really a castle, but a fortified farmstead dating from the 11th century (it probably stands on the site of an ancient villa). It is now a hospitality venue with a good reputation, and is popular for weddings. The complex includes an old church, the Chiesa di Sant'Andrea. Mass has been celebrated here at 10:00 on Sundays in recent years.
