Castle Cles

Località Al Castello

Castel Cles is first attested in a document from 1255 and belongs to the noble Baroni de Cles family. It stands on a dominant promontory, once overlooking the Noce River, now the Lake of Santa Giustina. Its original function was to control the important transport routes connecting Cles to the upper Val di Non. It was renovated in Renaissance style in 1537 by the Bishop Prince Bernardo Cles. Despite a fire in 1825 that destroyed the entire north-eastern wing, it is still one of the most imposing castle complexes in Trentino.
