The castle visit lasts approximately 45 minutes, just the right amount of time to appreciate the castle. It’s a comprehensive experience, but it won’t be the only one of the day.
The panoramic view is one of the main attractions of Serralunga Castle: from its windows, especially from the top of the tower, you can enjoy a spectacular view that embraces the surrounding countryside and extends to the majestic Alps. The feeling of being on top of the world is truly indescribable.
Its central tower and mighty stone walls tell stories of brave knights, feudal lords, and epic battles nearby. Every corner of the castle recalls medieval life, and as you explore it, you can live and hear the voices of the past.

Serralunga is located in the renowned Langhe of Barolo region, famous worldwide for its prized wine known as the “King of Wines.” You can enjoy a stroll through the vineyards, immersing yourself in the beauty of this hilly landscape.
The answer lies in the rich winemaking tradition of this region. The vineyards of the Langhe are famous for producing some of Italy’s best wines, including the celebrated Barolo. And Serralunga is one of the municipalities involved in this winemaking tradition. The vines that grace the hills around the castle are an integral part of the region’s wine history.
