1Visconti Castle, Castell’Arquato

Visconti Castle sits in the center of Castell’Arquato, a medieval village in the north of Italy. Featuring narrow, cobblestoned streets framed by rocky walls, a walk through this quaint 8th-century village will take you back in time

Besides the castle, the church of Saint-Mary and the Torrione Farnese (bell tower) are also worth a visit. Another asset of the village is that it’s located near the Piacenza Hills, a region famous for its excellent wines. It’s a great place to sample locally produced Gutturnio and Monterosso Val d’Arda wines.
