Overview

Castel del Monte, the famous octagonal fortress symbol of the crown of Frederick II of Swabia and magnificent testimony of the reign of one of the most fascinating and mysterious emperor of medieval history.

A hour of tour inside the internal and external environments of the Frederick's manor, to better understand what lies behind the apparent simplicity and sobriety of a castle that once looked much richer and more decorated than nowadays.

Let yourself be accompanied by our guides, who will reveal details that would otherwise be impossible to notice by simple visitor's eye.

The tour is on request and does NOT include the transfer to Castel del Monte.

Meeting point at CAT parking. The entrance ticket to the castle (7 euros) and the cost of the shuttle bus (1 euro) are NOT included.

Castel del Monte

Visiteremo il magnifico maniero federiciano, che si erge su di una collina in località Santa Maria del Monte. Entreremo alla scoperta degli ambienti interni, apprezzandone le sue architetture ed i suoi dettagli decorativi, in gran parte andati distrutti o rubati a partire dal 1700. Parleremo anche dei misteri e delle leggende che si celano dietro questa affascinante fortezza e dietro la figura di Federico II di Svevia. Un tour dinamico ed informale, all'insegna della storia, della bellezza e del mistero.
