Castello Visconteo, Medieval castle in Vogogna, Italy.

The stone castle features an irregular floor plan with a 20-meter-high semicircular tower on the west and a square tower on the east.

Giovanni Visconti commissioned the construction of this military garrison in 1348 to protect Bassa Ossola during the regional power struggles.

The restored castle currently functions as a cultural center, hosting exhibitions and educational programs about regional history and traditions.

The castle opens during weekends and public holidays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available through advance reservations.

The fortress contains three floors of living spaces with fireplaces in every hall, reflecting medieval architectural design and defensive requirements.
