With the beginning of work in the southern part in our castle was possible after a first test on the walls made by the Superintendence for Architectural Heritage Lombardi, the discovery of a splendid mullioned window (arc divided into two parts by a column) 1300. The masterpiece was hidden in a small room downstairs on the right side the courtyard in the middle ages where the falcons were kept. The work was discovered intact thanks to an inner wall and an outer filling that hide, is considered one of the most beautiful light windows of Lombardy, the preservation of the original colors and the magnificent white marble column in the Venetian style architecture give an impetus which goes to satisfy the eye of these days has had the good fortune to take a look. After about a year from the purchase by the municipality of the oldest part of the medieval fortress, a find of this magnitude does nothing but increase our castle in the hope that there are other hidden treasures ready to be unearthed and become invaluable assets to us belgioiosini.
Our roots start from there, from our castle, first used as a fortress, later turned into a hunting lodge of the Visconti of Milan, who in turn sold it to the family Barbian, their faithful soldiers of fortune. Quesi'ultimi right at the beginning of 1400, an era coming to Belgaum from Lugo di Romagna to follow the Visconti. Rich in history and an enviable architectural heritage, our castle is sure to become a source of pride for us Belgioiosini proud to have regained some of their historical and cultural heritage.
