Castello di Calepio, Medieval castle in Castelli Calepio, Italy.

The castle stands above the Oglio River valley, protected by natural cliffs to the south and a deep moat on the northern and eastern sides.

Built in 1430 by Trussardo di Calepio with Venetian support after the previous fortress was destroyed during conflicts with Niccolò Piccinino in 1428.

The castle transformed from a military stronghold into a noble residence between the 17th and 18th centuries, incorporating rococo and neoclassical decorative elements.

The Conti Calepio Foundation manages the castle and offers guided tours lasting 90 minutes throughout the year, with increased availability during summer months.

The castle houses the remains of Saint Celestino Martire in its 17th-century chapel and features a statue of Trussardo da Calepio in its courtyard.
