Castle of Casale Monferrato, Hexagonal military castle in Casale Monferrato, Italy
The Castle of Casale Monferrato features four circular towers at its corners and stands prominently on the right bank of the Po River.
Giovanni II Paleologo ordered the construction of the castle in the 14th century, which later became the residence of the Gonzaga family in 1536.
The castle transformed from a noble residence to a military barracks during the Savoy period, reflecting the changing dynamics of Italian society.
The castle opens its rooms to visitors, featuring exhibitions about local history and architectural development throughout different periods.
The structure maintains its original hexagonal layout from the 16th century modifications, when military engineers reinforced it against newer warfare techniques.
