Castello di Statto

The rectangular structure features circular towers at its corners, with decorated ceilings and frescoes adorning the interior chambers of the fortress.

The castle's first historical record dates to 1296 when Casellasco dei Casellaschi transferred ownership to Ottone Codognelli, marking its initial documented presence.

The name Statto originates from an ancient Roman postal station that facilitated communications between the cities of Piacenza and Genoa.

Located on the left bank of Trebbia River, the castle stands on an elevated position controlling access routes from Po Valley to Val Trebbia.

In 1926, Count Orazio Anguissola Scotti purchased the property and initiated renovations to transform the military fortress into a summer residence.
