This castle was perhaps built in the second half of the 15th century. The flanking towers are indented by pointed battlements, while the central part is topped by a jut under which the battlementsare walled.
The Gothic five-light window in the middle of the facade is very beautiful. In the large room on the ground floor there are frescos by G.A.Fasolo and G.B.Zelotti and a collection of antique ceramics from Nove. The huge hall on the upper floor is adorned with many large paintings representing horses by O.Cassana. Noteworthy are the 18th century stables by F.Muttoni. The little outside church is a lovely examples of Venetian architecture of the second half of the 15th century. |
