Castles in Italy for holidays

In 1469, the property was sold to Guido Sforza Aldobrandeschi. In 1511, Niccolo Machiavelli (who possessed family estates about 6 km, from Bibbione in Sant’Andrea in Percussina) bought the Castle and the farmland using it as a hunting lodge. The Machiavelli’s remained in possession of the complex until 1727, when the last heir, Francesco Machiavelli, died leaving his cousin, Giovanni Battista Rangoni, a Modenese noble descendent of the Machiavelli, heir to the name and inheritance, title and heraldic arms of Machiavelli who took on the name of Rangoni Machiavelli.
