Castle of Faicchio, Medieval castle in Faicchio, Italy.
The Castle of Faicchio is a fortified structure built on elevated ground with stone walls and defensive towers from different construction phases. The building shows elements that were added across several centuries.
The fortress was built in the Middle Ages as a stronghold between the territories of Naples and Benevento. It played a key role in the armed conflicts between these two powers.
The castle displays the building styles that were typical in this region over the centuries, with stones and structures from different periods. Today you can clearly see these traces of regional architecture as you walk around.
The site is accessible on foot via the main road through town, with parking available near the entrance. The walk up is fairly steep, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
From the castle you can see far across the landscape toward Mount Matese and down into the Volturno Valley. These views show why this location was so strategically valuable.
