The Avio Castle is a huge complex that overlooks the Val Lagarina and has been around for over 10 centuries and was often visited by intellectuals and artists, the results of which can be seen in the interiors of the castle. One of its most salient features is that its characteristics counterbalance one another. The exterior of the Castle has defensive walls and looming towers while inside, there lies a lush garden of vines and cypresses that you can explore. There is also a “Room of Love” and a Keep that celebrates war, knightly customs, and courtly love through enchanting frescoes.
The historic place is also suitable for your young ones. Through game-based trails, you can discover stories and characters that breathed life into the castle many moons ago.
