Castello Balduino

Castello Balduino is located at Montalto Pavese, south of Pavia, about 10km/6mi south of Casteggio via the S10 or A21.

In 1909, the Balduino family bought the garden and castle and brought in Giovanni Chevalley to restore the gardens into 1735 design of Giovanni Antonio Veneroni.

The garden has been successfully restored to include: fountains and garden sculpture along a narrow walk; crisp geometric shapes mostly of box and yew, and terraces that follow the bastions of the original 13th century castle.
