Today, thanks to the Foundation Livion IV Odescalchi, the castle is open to the public and welcomes thousands of travellers a year. 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. From the very top of it, you can also enjoy a wonderful view over the valley of the lake.
