Castle of Tolcinasco

Castle in Lombardy, Italy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Castle of Tolcinasco (Italian: Castello di Tolcinasco) is a 16th century fortification located in Lombardy, Italy, more precisely in Tolcinasco, frazione of the comune of Pieve Emanuele. Built by the House of Adda, it can be defined as an heavily fortified farmhouse due to the fact that it was the building from which the country nearby could be defended and because it was also the depot where farming supplies and harvest from the crops was held.[1] As of today, the castle is a privately owned structure which has been turned into a golf resort and spa.
