You enter the crenellated manor from the drawbridge. The fortress is impregnable due to the high walls - defended by machicolations, slits, corbels - inside an elegant Renaissance residence. Walking through the ancient rooms of the Castle of Montechiarugolo, beyond the splendid gardens embellished with eighteenth-century statues from the ducal garden of Colorno, you can admire the halls, tapestries, period furnishings, frescoes and putti spreading flowers.
