10 Things to do in Bracciano That You Shouldn't Miss

October 30, 2021 Phylicia Berquist

Bracciano is a small town in the Italian region of Lazio, 30 kilometres (19 miles) northwest of Rome. The town is famous for its volcanic lake (Lago di Bracciano or "Sabatino", the eighth largest lake in Italy) and for a particularly well-preserved medieval castle Castello Orsini-Odescalchi. The lake is widely used for sailing and is popular with tourists; the castle has hosted a number of events, especially weddings of actors and singers.

Castello Odescalchi di Bracciano

The Castello di Bracciano - a stone's throw from Rome - is one of the most impressive castles in Italy, Europe and the world. Completed in 1485 by the Orsini family, around an existing 12th century Vico fortress, it is one of the few renaissance castles in Italy that - thanks to the Odescalchi family - is open to the public. It also plays host to numerous weddings, galas and important cultural events throughout the year.

Went there as a part of a winery tour (which I have reviewed separately, two thumbs up!!!) and the castle surprised us being so very beautiful, in a great condition, fantastic artifacts and interesting history. The guide was such a knowledgeable lady speaking very good English. She really made the tour to be so great. It was a rainy day, but still the scenery up from the castle towards the Bracciano lake was gorgeous. The rain didn’t distract at all even though walking in the courtyard of the castle. There was only a handful of people there which made the visit even better: you could see everything in peace and just wonder from the gorgeous halls to another. Go and see the castle - you won’t be disappointed!
