What To Expect

The tower house is private and can only be visited by appointment, otherwise it is not open to the public. Accompanied by the owners it will be possible to see and touch the historical evolution of the building, as well as the historical center of the city itself, starting from the pre-Romanesque period to the Middle Ages, to then see the Renaissance period and finally reach the early twentieth century.
A unique experience is the visit of the interior and the top two floors of the tower, containing period furniture and furnishings, still lived in by the owners themselves.
You can also admire the portraits of the ancestors of the hosts, as well as those of the kings of Italy, from Vittorio Emanuele II to Umberto II, see their family tree and much more. From the top floor you can see the city from above, the Po valley below and the Orobic pre-Alps. In fact, the building was born as a tower house and from its top you could control the whole surrounding area. A tour through history.
