Brescia Castle

Perched at the top of the Cidneo Hill, the Castle is one of the most fascinating fortified complexes in Italy and the second largest in Europe.
Inside the fourteenth-century Mastio Visconteo, the “Luigi Marzoli” Arms and Armor Museum houses one of Europe’s finest collections of antique armour and weapons, displaying Brescia’s time-honoured weaponry tradition, documenting its technological and artistic evolution between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries.
