Castello di Monticello, Medieval castle in Gazzola, Italy.
The castle features a rectangular layout with four towers, including three round-based and one square-based structure surrounding two internal courtyards.
In 1372, during an anti-Visconti uprising, papal troops seized the castle while it was under the protection of the Arcelli family.
The Santa Maria Maddalena and Santo Stefano Protomartire church, built in the 14th century, stands near the castle as its original chapel.
The castle currently operates as a private agricultural estate, with certain sections showing signs of deterioration and limited access.
A battle in April 1945 saw 30 partisans successfully defend the castle against 400 Nazi-fascist troops through reinforcements and artillery support.
