The Castle, a feud of the branches of the Malaspina del Ramo Fiorito holdings from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century, is of great importance historically, and above all, architecturally. The construction of the massive fortress, which merges with the underlying sandstone rock so the whole structure seems carved in stone, began in the second half of the twelfth century.

"Last week I have visited the Fosdinovo Castle near the village of Sarzana. I found the property amazing and full of history (Dante wrote some chapters of his masterpiece in this castle). I have been told that in summer time, when the weather is not too cold, there is a sort of B&B service. Since the..." place has been up to now only a summer residence of the noble family there is an atmosphere of home and not hotel. For me this is very important!

"A real medieval castle on the hill with some antique things left! Very interesting to explore. Must visit if you are in Massa.
May be inconvenient for strollers because of lots of stairways."
"Staying at this B&B was a highlight of our five week tour of western Europe. The accommodations were lovely and true to the castle aesthetic. I cannot say enough about the owners or manager! Even in the midst of distinguished guests, I felt a genuine concern for our personal comfort. If you go, make..." certain you treat yourself to a sunset apertif. The views were breathtaking and the fare was very, very good. All the peace and magic of such a place is had at the price of some convenience if you are not bringing a car, however. There is only one true restaraunt in Fosdinovo (though excellent and reasonably priced), and the buses are sporadic and do not run on Sundays. But please do not let this stop you! We managed well without one and took a day trip by train to Pisa. Overall, this is a wonderful escape to northwestern Tuscany that I would repeat in a heartbeat!
