Castello Valleise

Valleise castle

Built by the Valleise family in the 17th century. Interesting frescoes of the fiefdoms owned by the Valleise family can be found in the Hall of Honour. The castle has 3 storeys flanked by 2 four-sided towers. The internal façade opens onto the courtyard, wit a double arcade of light stone columns.
In the hall of honour you can admire ten painted views of places belonging to the Valleise. The park also holds a hexagonal chapel dedicated to Saint Joseph, Saint Anthony and the Virgin Mary, and with a Baroque polychrome marble altar. The castle was linked by a covered gallery to another castle, now in ruins, called the "Castello Inferiore della Costa".
