Colonna Castle in Piano di Sorrento, open May–August.
Colonna Castle dates to the 16th century, originally constructed as a defensive fortification overlooking the Sorrentine Peninsula coast.
The structure underwent significant restoration in recent decades, transforming its stone chambers and terraced grounds into a sophisticated restaurant and event venue.
Today it operates as a working restaurant serving contemporary Italian cuisine while preserving the castle's architectural integrity and historical character.
Property with history dated back to 14th century as an Abbey. Lovely lovely owners. Highly recommended. Google for "Al Castello de Nancy".
