Historic fortress and Renaissance residence, the Castle of Bracciano is an enchanting place for private guided tours. The Castello Orsini-Odescalchi is one of the largest and the most beautiful in Italy. In its halls decorated with frescoes and furnished rooms, it houses collections of antique furniture, Renaissance pottery, armors and weapons.
