Fenis Castle is a great structure that looks like something out of a fairy tale. It has five towers, two courtyards, and a bunch of frescoes and paintings inside. It was built by the Challant family, who were powerful lords in the region. They used it as a residence and a fortress, and they added more features over the centuries. It's one of the best preserved castles in Europe, and you can visit it today if you want to see how the nobility lived back then. #italy #aosta #getaway

The keep is enclosed in a double wall with watchtowers connected by a patrol walkway. The manor is accessed by passing through a square tower that had a shutter to block the entrance hall in case of danger.
