Dal Verme Castle, Zavattarello

Lombardiet · Italien · Castle

In the Room of Spirits a chair was moved every night - Pietro Dal Verme, poisoned in 1485, is said never to have left his castle.

The massive stone castle of Zavattarello in the Oltrepo Pavese was the seat of the condottiero family Dal Verme. Its resident ghost is said to be Pietro Dal Verme - the count forced into a political marriage with Chiara Sforza who, according to tradition, died poisoned in 1485, his heart still belonging to his early-departed love Cecilia del Maino. Most famous is the 'Stanza degli Spiriti', the Room of Spirits, where in the 1990s a chair was repeatedly found moved in the morning and no one dared spend the night. The castle has been restored and is open to visitors, with ghost-themed events around Halloween.
