The centre of the Castello della Torre, a medieval castle, is composed of the torre grande, which was probably built in the 13th century as a guard post to control the road to the Val di Non.
In 1541, the castle was enlarged and renovated by the will of Sigismondo Spaur: two smaller towers were added and the residential building was converted into a larger and more comfortable noble residence. The Sant'Apollonia church in the garden of the castle, was added in the 17th century.
The Spaur family owned the property until the first half of the 17th century, when it passed to the counts of Welsberg. Today it is in private hands.
