Castello di Montebello Description
The Castello di Montebello, (originally Castello Piccolo, later Burg Schwyz and in the 19th C. San Martino), stands on the east side of Bellinzona, where the old town walls divided. It is the most interesting of the three as an example of the art of fortification (originally centered on the keep, with a 13th C. palace and courtyard and further structures built between 1460 and 1480), which now contain a historical and archaeological museum.
