Castello di Divignano
Highlight • Castle
The presence of a castle or "castrum" is mentioned as early as 1191, but the construction of the current fortress appears to date between 1454-1464 and 1489, that is, between the reign of Filippo Borromeo and that of his sons, Giovanni and Vitaliano.
It is known with certainty that in 1493 the building and its grounds were inherited by Ludovico Visconti Borromeo. The old square fortress, on the northern side, features the elegant and solid forms of the original fifteenth-century structure, with beautiful pointed-arch windows softened by terracotta decorations.
The castle's current appearance is the result of various renovations over the centuries, the most significant dating back to the eighteenth century.
The new reconstruction was commissioned by Giulio Visconti Borromeo Arese.
