History
[edit]The origins of the castle are not precisely documented, but the existence feudal residence belonging to the Counts of Valperga is recorded as early as 1237.[1] In the 16th century, following the Battle of Volpiano, the structure suffered significant damage.[1][2] Over the centuries, the building underwent several modifications, including a major restoration in 1825 carried out by the Daziani family, who owned the estate at the time.[1]
