Castello di Monterone, Medieval castle near Perugia, Italy

The Castello di Monterone features eighteen guest rooms with stone walls, medieval furnishings, and modern amenities within a thirteenth-century fortification.

A document from January 18, 1200, in Perugia's State Archives mentions the initial construction on Montarone hill by Gerardo di Ugolino di Alberico.

The castle maintains connections to the Knights Templar through its proximity to the Monastery of San Bevignate and potential underground passages between structures.

Visitors can reserve rooms directly through the castle's website, with the property located three kilometers from central Perugia.

Archaeological findings in the castle garden include a travertine ossuary and three bronze mirrors dating back to the third century BC.
