Castello del Conte Verde, Medieval castle in Condove, Italy.

The medieval fortress stands on a small elevation between Caprie and Condove, featuring remnants of its original fortified structure and defensive walls.

Built in the 14th century upon older foundations from the 16th century, the castle served as a strategic control point for the boundary with Sacra di San Michele.

A commemorative stone tablet placed on an erratic boulder within the castle marks the passage of Charlemagne in 773 CE after the Battle of Chiuse.

The castle, located at Via Conte Verde 37, opens occasionally for visitors and requires advance contact with Condove municipality for access arrangements.

Known locally as Castellazzo, this national heritage site contains structural elements from both Lombard fortifications and later medieval military architecture.
