Castello di Serralunga d'Alba

Italy, Italy

Castello di Serralunga d'Alba is a remarkable 14th-century castle that stands on a hill above the village of Serralunga d'Alba in the heart of Piedmont’s famous Langhe wine region.

Built between 1340 and 1357 by the Falletti family, it is considered one of the best-preserved medieval noble castles in Piedmont and is notable for its rare French-style donjon, or tower-keep design. Unlike many historic castles, it underwent very few alterations over the centuries, allowing it to retain much of its original medieval character.

Its imposing towers, fortified structure, and historic chapel with 15th-century frescoes provide a vivid glimpse into life during the Middle Ages. Today, the castle is one of the most iconic landmarks of the Langhe, overlooking vineyards that form part of a UNESCO World Heritage landscape. It attracts visitors for its architectural significance, rich history, and spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
