A landmark for miles around, Bracciano's 15th-century castle is a formidable sight with its crenellated walls and round towers. Inside, its Renaissance rooms are decorated with frescoes and tapestries, heavy wooden furniture and medieval weaponry amassed by Prince Baldassarre Odescalchi in the latter half of the 19th century.
The castle is also a renowned wedding venue and over the years has hosted the nuptials of several A-list couples including Martin Scorsese and Isabella Rossellini and Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
