“Castelli Aperti” (Castles Unlocked), organized by the Consortium for the Safeguard of the Historical Castles of Friuli Venezia Giulia, was created with the purpose to make it easier to access historical testimony represented by castle sites and by other fortified works of the Region. Many private castles arose, overlooking a gulf or located on green hills, submerged in large parks or in town centers in which they were the most prestigious residence. There are two “Castelli Aperti” dates in the course of the year: one in spring and one in autumn, dates, which enable you to visit the private castles not normally open to the public. The initiative is for the single visitor who wishes to discover some of the most beautiful castles of the Region, and the secrets behind their important front door: magnificent gardens, halls rich in art, history and recollections of other ages. On the antique stairways of fascinating castles the owners themselves or expert tour guides, can personally welcome you; you will go back in time with them and discover a historical heritage unknown until now.
