Castello di Padernello, Borgo San Giacomo
Lombardy
Padernello's castle is one of the few in Lombardy to preserve a fully functioning drawbridge over its water-filled moat, set in the flat rice-and-maize country of the Bassa Bresciana with almost nothing else around it. The circuit of the moat is short, level and quiet.
