Castello di Padernello, Medieval castle in Borgo San Giacomo, Italy.

The castle features a functioning drawbridge spanning a water-filled moat, leading to an entrance with original terracotta floor tiles.

Built in the late 14th century as a defensive tower, the Martinengo family transformed the structure into a noble residence until 1834.

The castle displays the Martinengo family coat of arms with a red eagle on gold background throughout its decorated chambers.

Access to the castle interior requires participation in guided tours, which can be scheduled through the Castello di Padernello Foundation.

The San Virgilio bridge near the castle incorporates chestnut tree trunks as part of an artistic installation connecting to nearby woods.
