Location Description
Castello Machiavelli Rangoni, located in Castel de' Britti, a hamlet of San Lazzaro di Savena, overlooks one of the most picturesque areas in the province of Bologna. Its strategic position on the hill offers panoramic views of the green Idice Valley and the historic Via Emilia, an ancient Roman road connecting the cities of Rimini and Piacenza. Built in 1888 by Marquis Alfonso Malvezzi Campeggi in a charming Neo-Medieval style, the castle is constructed with hand-carved sandstone blocks, a testament to the craftsmanship of the time. Over its history, this prestigious residence has witnessed significant events, including its occupation during World War II. Carefully restored by the Macchiavelli Rangoni family, the castle today stands as an elegant condominium, preserving the charm and history that make it a unique landmark in the Bologna area.
