Castle of Volta Mantovana, Medieval castle in Volta Mantovana, Italy.

The Castle of Volta Mantovana features two protective walls, an oval keep made of pebbles and bricks, and several entrance gates along its perimeter.

Beatrice of Canossa donated the castle to the Bishop of Mantua in 1055, marking its first documented mention in historical records.

The fortress served as a grain storage facility, distributing supplies to neighboring communities of Cavriana and Goito during the 15th century.

The castle stands at Via Castello 28 in Volta Mantovana, with sections now incorporated into residential buildings and Palace Gonzaga-Cavriani.

The original oval-shaped castle keep maintains its five-meter-high wall structure, incorporating both river pebbles and bricks in its construction.
