Castello Estense

20 minutes

Complete with moat Ferrara's towering castle was commissioned by the Este family in 1385. Initially it was intended to protect the Este family from the town's irate citizenry, who were up in arms over tax increases, but in the late 15th century it became the family's permanent residence. Linked to the castle by an elevated passageway, the 13th-century Palazzo Municipale was the Este family home until they moved next door to the castle.The visit of the castle interior is not included in this tour
