Castello Papadopoli Giol

The Papadopoli Giol Castle includes: the Castle, the Historical Park, and the Ancient Cellars.
Villa Papadopoli Giol, known as the "Castle," is a palace in English neo-Gothic style, also known as Tudor style, built in the late 19th century by the Papadopoli Counts. The imposing structure of the building immediately catches the observer's eye, while the tall crenellated towers with bow windows, the chimneys masked by pinnacles, and the pointed arches give the impression of being in front of a true medieval castle.

The side of the Castle that faces Piazza Nicolò Papadopoli and the village church is not actually the most important facade (the main entrance indeed faces the park), but it is certainly equally charming. Between the building and the large entrance gate, under tall plane trees, stands the beautiful and large fountain made up of three tiers of basins. The largest, featuring four crouching lions oriented towards the cardinal points, collects the overflowing water which cascades down in jets and sprays from the two upper tiers, supported by a slender central column.
