Castle of Medole

The castle features a square tower with a clock and defensive structures, including ancient walls surrounding the central square of the town.

The fortress, initially documented in 1020 through a donation act by Count Bonifacio of Verona, served as a strategic stronghold against Hungarian invasions.

The castle complex includes the Fancelliana house, distinguished by its Ghibelline battlements, reflecting the architectural style of northern Italian fortifications.

The civic tower of the castle now functions as an exhibition space, hosting art collections and cultural displays for public viewing.

The tower presents an unusual architectural feature with its three closed sides and one open face, displaying remaining wooden structures from the original castle.
