The stone castle, the result of modifications and additions over the centuries, develops on a plan articulated in continuity with the small medieval village, which extends along the slope of the hill; the manor has two courtyards, including the main one, of honor, near the seventeenth-century entrance, in addition to the panoramic terrace with the corner portico, adjacent to the southern edge of the complex. From the village you can access the ancient tower originally used as the entrance to the castle, on which stands, between the high cracks that once housed the bolts of the drawbridge, a fresco depicting a crowned two-headed eagle, the coat of arms of the Pallavicino marquises; the vault inside is decorated with paintings depicting the Apparition of the Madonna to San Carlo and Santa Maria Assunta, in addition to the emblem of the noble lineage. At the northern edge of the castle, a square-plan tower rises, leaning against the north wing of the castle, recovered during the most recent restorations.
