Forte Tortagna — A historic fortress reborn as an exclusive residence

Rising above the hills of Finale Ligure, surrounded by woodland and just a short drive from the crystal-clear waters of the Ligurian Riviera, Forte Tortagna is an extraordinary 19th-century fortress that blends the charm of history with the elegance of modern living. Built between 1883 and 1895 at the request of the Royal Italian Army, the fortress features a polygonal structure, concealed by embankments and a surrounding moat, a striking reminder of its defensive origins.

Today, this rare architectural gem has been transformed into a prestigious private residence, with all its rooms facing a large central courtyard. The interiors have been carefully restored and furnished with bespoke pieces, creating a warm and evocative atmosphere: from the library to the reception halls, from the spacious kitchen to the five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Every detail combines historical authenticity with contemporary comfort.

The property covers approx. 865 sqm and extends across 60,000 sqm of private land, ensuring complete privacy. A panoramic swimming pool, a helipad, a caretaker’s house, as well as garage and laundry facilities, complete the estate. Life here unfolds in harmony with nature, with spectacular views and an atmosphere of pure tranquility.

Forte Tortagna is more than a home: it is a place of inspiration, perfect as a private retreat, an exclusive venue for events, or a boutique hospitality project. Its elevated position guarantees peace and seclusion, while its proximity to renowned destinations such as Milan, Genoa, and Monte Carlo makes it both accessible and timeless.
