Issogne Castle


Issogne Castle is one of the most famous castles in the Aosta Valley. It is located in the capital of Issogne (locality La place), on the hydrographic right of the Dora Baltea, and appears as a Renaissance stately home, creating a sort of contrast with the austere castle of Verrès which is almost opposite the opposite side of the river.

Famous are its internal courtyard, with the pomegranate fountain and the colorful portico, a rare example of medieval Alpine painting, with its cycle of frescoes of scenes of daily life from the late Middle Ages.
