In the most picturesque part of its course, the old town of Penne, dominated by the ruins of its castle, occupies a remarkable site.
Its winding alleys have kept the atmosphere of yesteryear. Its castle, once a jewel of military architecture, remained abandoned for 450 years and then recently bought back to be rebuilt with the methods of yesteryear.
This process being long and expensive, the current owners organize festivities and medieval animations during all the season in order to promote their castle.
A visit to Penne Castle is a journey through time, an immersion in the daily life of the castles.
