Cascina del Castello
Briona (Novara)
- Traveller rating:
The Briona Castle stands out in the verdant woods on the first hills on the way from Novara to Valsesia. The castle tower looks over the tiny village of Briona and its rice plantations, a typical feature of the Novara plains. Once a defending fort, however as early as the beginning of the XVIcentury it lost its role of stronghold to become a “residence”, and than the farm we can see nowaday.
