Castello di Candia

Candia Canavese, Italy, Italy

---

Castello di Candia, also known as Castelfiorito, is a historic castle located in the town of Candia Canavese in the Piedmont region of northern Italy.

The site originally hosted a medieval castle that dominated the village and played a role in local conflicts during the 14th-century Canavese War. The original fortress suffered severe damage during these conflicts and was later dismantled. The building seen today is largely the result of a 19th-century reconstruction, although traces of the medieval structure can still be found in nearby buildings and walls within the historic center.

Now a private residence, the castle remains an important landmark and a symbol of Candia Canavese’s heritage. Its elevated position and picturesque setting contribute to its appeal as one of the notable historic sites in the Canavese area.
