Castello di Calendasco, Medieval castle in Calendasco, Italy
The castle exhibits a trapezoidal structure made of bricks, with Guelph merlons and four round towers connected by high defensive walls.
Built in the ninth century and first mentioned in documents by Pope Urban II, the castle underwent reconstruction in 1372 following its destruction in 1346.
The castle served as the birthplace of nobleman Saint Conrad Confalonieri in 1290, within the walls of what was then known as Castrum.
The fortress contains two large halls with fireplaces, known as the upper and lower magna caminata, featuring wooden coffered ceilings.
The castle maintained a strategic position controlling river trade, collecting duties from vessels traversing the Po River during medieval times.
