A
fortress that once belonged to the wealthy Vicedomini family, all that remains
of the Castello di Domofole today is the imposing grey stone tower, parts of
the circular wall, and remains of nearby churches. The quadrangular tower was
built with very thick walls and numerous loopholes, or arrow slits.
This castle was destroyed in 1524 and abandoned to
its fate after playing a valiant role in the many conflicts that have defined
Valtellina’s history.
