For a millennium, Pergine Castle has told about itself and those who have lived there or stopped there. From its ancient stones emanates today a poetics that enchants and reveals the long life on the hill, the one that was consumed within the very long and somewhat shabby walls, in the splendid halls or around the medieval hearth, in the gardens and in the fascinating towers , between the humble and the powerful.
Restorations
We have started a substantial restoration program of Pergine Castle.
In 2022 we relocated the altar complex to the Chapel of St. Andrew and concluded, thanks to a generous private donation, the conservative intervention on the fresco of the Madonna Tower.
In 2023 work on the north-east walls, on the Torrione di Massimiliano and on the Torre della Madonna.
Once the scaffolding was removed from the Torrione di Massimiliano in October, cleaning and conservation interventions revealed the good condition of the original 16th century plaster and highlighted the sanguine decoration of fake stone ashlars, characteristic of the period.
