In the 10th century the castle of Soave was built to protect the place against the Hungarians. Later in 1596 the castle was sold at the private market when it lost its strategic importance. 1830 was the year that the castle was inherited by Giulio Camuzzoni and he re-established the castle.

We spotted this castle by accident on the way from Verona. We took Max and Ava to see it, and it was really cool. A retired gentleman restored it in the late 1800s, it certainly has a beautiful outlook over the walled town and vineyards.
