Quart — Castello
Aosta Valley
Quart's castle stands in ruins on a narrow, near-vertical rock spur, one of the most photogenic fortress sites in the valley precisely because of its precarious position. A steep path climbs to the base of the ruins, with the Aosta plain and surrounding vineyards spread out below.
