“In Luzzana a villa palace with an adjoining garden of the illustrious Patrizia Veneta family of the Giovanelli barons, owners of very extensive landed estates in this village also”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is how Giovanni Maironi da Ponte, in his famous Dizionario Odeporico<\/em>, describes the most important architectural presence, both historical and environmental, in the Luzzana area.
The definition of “castle” is improper and certainly reductive – as, moreover, already emerges from Maironi’s writing – since the former Giovanelli property, rather than being a single building well-defined in outline and appearance, was articulated in a series of courtyard buildings (some rural) distributed on a plateau halfway up the right side of the valley. Among these, the buildings known as “Barbino” and “Molendino” stood out, as well as the Castle and the Patriarch’s block, of a residential nature.
The military origin of the building is attested both by its architectural layout, which reveals its primitive defensive and control function – considering its position about the hydrography and orography of the valley, the traffic routes, the organisation of the buildings and the wall texture of some structural parts – and by the presence of objective dating elements. In particular, the keystone of the pointed arch in the entrance hall bears a date, today only readable in the first three digits: 1, 2, and 9. Moreover, the military origin is confirmed by the constancy with which the toponym recurs in maps and cabrei since the transformation into a villa – to recall Maironi’s text – had already occurred some time ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
