Castello di Redondesco, Medieval castle in Redondesco, Italy

The rectangular fortress contains angular towers and a quadrangular entrance tower, forming a complete defensive structure within the Lombardy region.

Built in the 12th century under Emperor Frederick Barbarossa's authorization in 1163, the castle changed ownership from Redondesco counts to Gonzaga family in 1240.

The castle exhibits military architectural elements from different centuries, reflecting the evolution of defensive structures in the Lombardy region through medieval times.

The castle, located in Piazza Giuseppe Garibaldi, remains open for visits and offers insights into medieval military architecture through guided explorations.

The fortress maintained strategic control over the Via Postumia, an ancient Roman commercial route, until its partial dismantling in the 17th century.
