Govone Castle, Royal castle from UNESCO World Heritage Site in Govone, Italy.
The castle overlooks the Tanaro valley from its hilltop position, featuring grand staircases and apartments with decorative frescoes throughout the structure.
The medieval fortress transformed into a royal residence when the House of Savoy acquired it in 1792, leading to extensive renovations by King Charles Felix.
The Chinese rooms display authentic 18th-century wallpapers, while the Hall of Honor presents mythological scenes through elaborate ceiling frescoes.
The castle operates as both a museum and the town hall of Govone, offering guided tours through its state rooms and surrounding English-style gardens.
The castle maintains an ancient orangery that now serves as a venue for conferences, featuring a collection of military and religious artifacts.
