Lake of Bracciano - Near Rome

A majestic castle, one of the most beautiful feudal residences of Europe. Built by the Orsini family in 1470 around an old medieval fortress, dating back to 1200, on the southern shore of Lake Bracciano, the castle was the perfect communion between military and Renaissance architecture.

Montalcino- Tuscany

The Castle is an historic fortress standing high in Montalcino, famous area for one of the most exquisite wines (the Brunello of Montalcino), overlooking the Tuscan countryside. An elegant, romantic setting for celebrations and your very special event.
