laced among the green ripples that frame the centuries-old Venetian Walls dating back to the 16th century and built to protect Città Alta, the building, with its park, is considered one of the most remarkable places in terms of landscape in the hills of Bergamo, a place from which you can admire a splendid view of the Old City.
The origins of the Castle of Valverde are really ancient, in fact the first traces of its existence date back to the tenth century when the Poliachi or Poyacum castle was located in the center of Vico Fabriciano (original nucleus of Borgo San Lorenzo). Later it was Castello Avogadri as can be seen from some sixteenth-century documents.
You can stay in Bergamo, in a historic residence between art and nature, in the holiday home LA DIMORA, which is located in the ancient setting of the Castle of Valverde and from which you can admire the famous Upper City.
By staying in the holiday home LA DIMORA in the Castle of Valverde you will be at an ideal starting point to visit the historical and artistic treasures of Bergamo, between the Venetian walls as a UNESCO heritage site, the squares and churches rich in works of art. In a few minutes you can reach Città Alta, walk along the ancient fortifications, get lost among stone alleys and panoramic views that open up on the plain.
At the same time, the location allows you to experience the nature that embraces the city: jogging at dawn along the ramparts, sunset walks between the hills, pedaling on the paths surrounded by greenery that surround the ancient Upper City. A rare balance between history, silence and landscape, where every day can begin with the sound of the bells and end with an open view to the Apennines on the clearest days.
