Fossano — Castello degli Acaja

Piedmont

Fossano's castle, built for Amedeo VI's branch of the House of Savoy known as the Acaja, retains its four corner towers largely intact above the town's flat historic centre, a quieter alternative to the busier Saluzzo further south. The streets around it are level and easy.
