"The Castle of Montignano"
Montignano Castle, located in Massa Martana in Umbria, is a historic residence dating back to 962 AD, when Emperor Otto I of Saxony assigned the county to Count Arnolfo.
Initially a "Byzantine corridor" in the Middle Ages, a fiefdom of the Arnolfi family, until it became a rural lordship during the struggles between the Guelphs and Ghibellines, the castle was sacked and rebuilt several times.
In the 18th century, the Matalucci family transformed the castle into a stately home, adding an elegant loggia, a private chapel and a garden.
A historical study edited by Filippo Orsini, meticulously retraces the stages and events of the thousand-year history of this "Italian monument".
