CASTELLO DEGLI AGOLANTI

CASTELLO DEGLI AGOLANTI

The Agolanti Castle, or Tomb, takes its name from the noble Florentine family in exile who had it built in the first half of the 14th century, probably on an already existing building. The building is described in the documents of the time as a valuable fortified building. Its history remains linked to the Agolantis until the 18th century.

The Agolantis did not reside permanently in Riccione, they used the Castle as a country residence for the control of the agricultural activity linked to their possessions or as a holiday and representation place.

In the period of its maximum splendour, in the mid-17th century, the Castle of Riccione twice hosted Queen Christina of Sweden on pilgrimage from her residence in Rome.

Recent archaeological research has not revealed the presence of the fourth tower.

Historical sources record the existence of a small church and a "library dressing room" inside the White Tomb, which housed the collection of family books, considered conspicuous, but unfortunately lost.

Due to its important strategic position, the building constituted a privileged observation point, an outpost, so much so that in 1743 it was transformed into the headquarters of the Austrian army under the orders of General Lobkowitz. Even in the mid-eighteenth century it seemed to be in good condition.
The municipal administration of Riccione has carried out a major renovation of the building, which has returned to new life as a cultural container in respect of its historical and environmental value.
