CASTELLO DI GROPPARELLO
Castles with their own ghosts that show up on stormy nights.
Dating back to the 8th century, Gropparello Castle was donated by Charlemagne to the Bishop of Piacenza in the 9th century. Like all self-respecting castles, it has its own ghost who shows up on stormy nights. The ghost is said to be lord Petrone da Cagnano, who in the 13th century had his wife walled up in the cellars to punish her for betraying him. The castle is surrounded by a vast park. The restaurant is housed in a beautiful castle hall with a large fireplace. It has adapted its cuisine to the historical context, being creative, seasonal and local.
