Este — Castello Carrarese e Mura
Veneto
Este's castle, rebuilt by the Carrara family after an earlier Ezzelino-era fortress, is ringed by walls and a moat now enclosing a shaded public park rather than a private residence. It sits right where the Euganean hills meet the plain, giving a different, lower-altitude angle on the Colli Euganei than the hilltop viewpoints nearby.
