Closed and disheveled. Not worth a visit, just to get a photo of tired fences and weeds taking over a once beautiful building

Interesting to see up close since it’s even more massive but it was closed. Matera’s Count Gian Carlo Tramontano built this castle on the backs of the local Matera people by taxing them heavily so a few of the people ambushed and killed him in 1514 before he could complete it. Now lottery funds are used to restore it.

Not accessible. Can only walk around it and some Nast plastic tape has been put up as a gesture to prevent access to the moat.

Currently closed. Chain fences are knocked down on the outside at either end so you can walk around the moat and back up the other end. It's a fairly small site so only takes a few minutes to walk around. Impressive thick walls at the base, in good condition on the outside but not much to look at. Looks like it has some impressive views over the valley.

Closed castle and surrounding area too, place with a massive potential due to the view on different area of the town
