Castel Romano

Castel Romano was built in the 12th century and overlooks the village of Pieve di Bono and the Valle del Chiese valley

It is an imposing rectangular castle tower with a unique architectonic structure. First it was owned by the Lords of Appiano, then by the Lords of Arco until the 14th century, when it was taken over by the Counts Lodron. They extended the castle and added renaissance residential buildings. Castel Romano was plundered several times and wiped out during the first World War.

Its restoration and consolidation works were started only a few years ago: the entrance was fixed, some rooms were restored and valuable treasures were recovered. In summer, various cultural events are organised in its recently refurbished gardens.
