Rondolino Castle (Italian: Castello Rondolino) is a castle located in Cavaglià, Piedmont, Italy.

History

[edit]
The main tower

The castle is the result of a neo-medieval reconstruction carried out at the end of the 19th century at the request of the Rondolino family.[1][2]

Description

[edit]

The building consists of three sections: a central quadrangular structure, a tower, and a separate but connected structure that resembles a rural courtyard. The central section and the tower are characterized by battlements.[1][2]
