About
The Visconti Castle of Crenna is a castle of medieval origin located in Crenna, district of Gallarate, Lombardy, Northern Italy. It is linked to the fame of Lodrisio Visconti, who raised against and then reconciled with the family members of his cousin Matteo Visconti, Lord of Milan. In the 14th century, the castle underwent expansion and destruction according to the alternative fortunes of Lodrisio.
Since the 19th century, a group of private estates, also in the revival castle form, have been constructed near the original building, characterizing the area today.
