Châtelard Castle, Medieval castle in La Salle, Italy.

The Gothic Revival castle stands at 1,160 meters elevation, featuring a circular tower design that characterizes the regional fortification architecture.

Bishop Rodolphe Grossi initiated the construction of Châtelard Castle in 1243, with the first written records dating back to 1248.

The castle structure combines Italian and French architectural elements, reflecting the cross-border influences of the Aosta Valley region.

The castle's position in the Pennine Alps offers views across the valley while demonstrating medieval defensive engineering techniques.
