Which elements of the castle date back to 1647?

The interior staircase and entrance facade with superimposed orders (Doric and Ionic) date from the construction campaign begun in 1647.

Does the garden date from the same period?

No. The lateral garden with crossing pathways, the fountain, and the pillars of the main gate likely represent 18th-century additions.

What are the remarkable architectural features of the facade?

The main facade rises one and a half stories above the ground floor, flanked by two round towers without defensive character. The central entrance, framed by pilasters and crowned by a triangular pediment, exemplifies the building's classical composition.
