Castello di Levizzano Rangone

Castello di Levizzano Rangone, Medieval castle in Levizzano Rangone, Italy.

Castello di Levizzano Rangone is a fortified complex dominated by a square-plan tower known as the Torre di Matilde, or Matildic Tower. The present tower is not the original structure but the result of later rebuilding, including 18th-century restorations by the Rangoni family, who also rebuilt the church inside the castle. The castle grounds also house the Rosso Graspa Museum on the ground floor.

The castle probably dates to the late 9th century, when fortified enclosures were built against Hungarian raids across the Po Plain. The name Levizzano first appears in an 890 document from Nonantola Abbey, mentioning the Garbuga di Levizzano. In 1038 Bishop Viberto of Modena granted the castle, two chapels and the houses within its walls to Marquis Bonifacio of Tuscany. It passed through the Levizzani, Da Savignano and Bonaccolsi families before reaching the Rangone in 1342, who added their name to the village; in the 19th century it became municipal property.

The castle houses the Rosso Graspa Museum of wine and rural society on its ground floor. It displays farm tools and period photographs of fieldwork, with a sound installation of rural sounds and recordings of testimony in the local dialect.

Visits to the castle are only possible through guided tours organized by the Castelvetro municipality. Each tour lasts about one hour and fifteen minutes and includes access to the museum inside.

Inside the castle, the ROSSO GRASPA Museum displays old farming tools, woodworking equipment, and historical photographs. These collections show how local farmers worked and the crafts skills that shaped the region's way of life.
