Castello di Compiano, Val Taro
Emilia-Romagna
Compiano's castle and huddled stone houses sit on a ridge above the Taro valley in Parma's remote Apennine hinterland, part of the Borghi più belli d'Italia network. The village lanes are steep but short, and the castle terrace looks down over forested slopes toward the Ligurian border.
