Marquis castle Granafei of Cannole
Erected by the Orsini del Balzo in 1413, the castle underwent many changes that transformed its aspect in the 17th and 18th centuries. On its sides are still visible the typical characteristics of the military architecture. Major architectural changes were made with the ownership passage from the Personè family to the Granafei in 1747: the latter have in fact expanded the building with a wing on the east side and have built a lush garden dominated by a fountain, above which stands the coat of arms.
