Do you know the Castle of Torrechiara? Its beauty seduces, in fact it was built 600 years ago for the love of Bianca Pellegrini, but also for the love of the land on which Pier Maria Rossi, the Magnificent, capable and cultured captain, dominated.

Hills and mountains guarded by 24 castles, farms and well bred animals all around…an extraordinary and pristine geography, to admire from the Golden room and then, looking out from the loggia, we find fields and grapevines in the landscape, exactly as back in time, that give us products as the Wines of the hills, the Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and the Ham of Parma.

With our guide, you will discover how much this passion for beauty and good food is still alive !
