Masino Castle

Masino Castle (Italian: Castello di Masino) is a hill-top castle located in Caravino, Italy.

Its original owner was the Valperga dynasty, which, legend has it, were descended from Arduino, the first king of Italy.

[1] In 1988, the property was acquired by the Fondo Ambiente Italiano.

[1][3] The castle lies on the top of a morainic relief rising from the Ivrea Plain at the foothills of the Alps.

The structure features a quadrangular plan with an imposing keep.
