Situated on a hill in the heart of South Tyrol, North of Italy, this Renaissance castle is only 10 miles from the regional capital of Bozen and the renowned spa town of Meran.

First mentioned in 1244, the building was alternatively owned by more than one noble families. In the late 1300s a unique vineyard was annexed to the already large estate, soon becoming the real appealing feature among the aristocracy of the times.

In the following centuries the original structure was enlarged, re-shaped and a number of trapdoors were added. This earned the building a brand new splendor, up to the highest magnificence it reached between the 16th and 17th centuries.
