Visconti Castle, Medieval castle in Cassano d'Adda, Italy
The stone and brick castle features Gothic architectural elements, sturdy defensive walls, and towers positioned along the Adda River near Milan.
Initially constructed before the 14th century, Bernabò Visconti expanded the fortress between 1355 and 1370 to strengthen control over the Adda River region.
The castle walls contain medieval frescoes from the Giotto school, depicting religious figures including angels and saints within its chapel.
The structure now operates as Hotel Castello Visconteo, offering accommodations while maintaining access to historical sections for visitors.
Architect Bartolomeo Gadio documented extensive modifications made during the Sforza period, providing detailed insights into 15th-century construction techniques.
