關於
The Castle of Calendasco (Castrum Calendaschi in Latin) is a fortification located in the Italian municipality of Calendasco, in the province of Piacenza.
The building, built entirely of brick, is substantially intact and in a good state of preservation, although in need of some restoration work.
The oldest part of the manor was built at the behest of the bishop count of Piacenza, whose territory of Calendasco was a fief, as architectural traces indicate, around the year 1000, while the first mention is in a document by Pope Urban II dating from 1187 in which the property rights of the monks of San Salvatore di Quartizzola in Calendasco were confirmed.
The castle with the receptum formed, together with the church and the pilgrims' hospital, the Calendaschi burg.
