Small castle built by the Visconti family in 1300, connected to the Castle of Pavia via a straight road, located inside the Visconteo park which reached as far as the Certosa, used for hunting. It is a two-storey brick building used as a dwelling, on the first floor there is a balcony supported by arches.

Historic site of the battle of Pavia (February 24, 1525) undergoing restoration Here the Spanish arquebusiers, in the shelter of the park's wood, are overriding the French heavy cavalry. "The French heavy cavalry was destroyed; the horsemen who remained on foot were annihilated by the infantry with dagger blows to the neck, in the junction between helmet and armor, or through the small slits of the helmet concealment. they employed their firearms striking at close range, in many cases firing the shot directly into the knights' armor after placing the harquebus through the mail. King Francis I's main commanders fell at this stage of the battle; Louis de la Trémoille was killed by a close shot of an arquebus, the same Guillaume Gouffier de Bonnivet and Galeazzo Sanseverino, while La Palice died of dagger wounds. " (Wikipedia) Francis I falls from his horse and is taken prisoner.
