The castle is located in the province of Alessandria in a charming village in the hills between Monferrato and the Langhe. The castle, which later assumed the name,
still pertaining to it, of Royal Castle as it was purchased by Her Majesty Queen Christina of
Bourbon, still retains the original defensive walls that make it architecturally unique. The property consists of the castle and former stables, set in a wonderful park with walkways and water features, in which green and shady areas alternate with a bicentennial plane tree and centuries-old plants. The castle is mentioned in official documents from 1367, when the town ended up in the possessions of Galeazzo Visconti: however, it is certain that there was already some kind of fortress on the site to defend the town. The Visconti invested various families to run the village, the last of which remained in charge for more than five centuries. In 1908 the castle was declared a national monument valuable for its art and history by the Ministry of Education.

The fully renovated property consists of:
– Main body of the Castle: developed on 4 floors totaling 1,700 square meters.
