Castello della Manta

The wonderful crown of the Cottian Alps, dominated by the sharp outline of the Monviso massif, provides the frame for the imposing bulk of this castle, which is located around 40 kilometres from Turin. Built in the 13th century as a military outpost, the fortress underwent a major overhaul in the 15th century thanks to Valerano, the enlightened ruler of the Marquisate of Saluzzo, who transformed it into a family home at the time of the establishment of the fiefdom of La Manta. It was Valerano who wanted to enrich the Baronial Hall with the beautiful frescoes that today stand as unique testaments to the knightly culture of the time. On the southern wall, the myth of eternal youth, inspired by the chivalrous tale of the “Roman de Fauvel”, is depicted by the fountain of youth, surmounted by the god of Love.
