We live in Val Parma and we would like to aquaint you with it

The magnificent Torrechiara Castle is one of the finest representations of our region - this impressive Castle was built in 1462 by Pier Maria Rossi as a love nest for his lover Bianca Pellegrini.

The Castle greets you at the door to the Parma Apennines Valley, a lush hill and mountain range that extends to the Tuscany boundaries. A vast area still unspoiled by highways, rail traffic or industrial development - yet rich in nature, traditions and excellent artisanal fare.
