点评:Been up here many times. Mostly I come here with my students, showing them the Canton Tessin and its highlights. And Bellinzona with its castles is definitely one.
This Castle here is very easy accessible from the town. You could drive and park on top. But it's nice to take the quick walk up here. The stairs might be steep for some, but it's really a 10min walk only.
Castello di Montebello is a 13th-century fortress built by the Rusca family. Perched 90 meters above the city, it was expanded by Milanese rulers to secure vital Alpine trade routes. The complex features heavy 15th-century fortifications, including a deep defensive moat and distinct round outer towers. In 2000, it became a UNESCO World Heritage site alongside the city's other two medieval castles. Today, it hosts an Archaeological Museum showcasing ancient regional artifacts and offering sweeping valley views.
Even though we didn't go inside (there's a fee), the views from outside are rewarding enough. What's even more rewarding are the views over the town and especially the Castelgrande!
There's plenty of space around the castle to walk, to take pics. To take a picnic. It makes some nice pics here with the ancient walls around.
Even if you have only little time in town, it's a quick walk up you shouldn't miss. Just take a left after you pass the church in the heart of the town and head up. And don't miss out on the Castelgrande of course. There's an elevator going up there just in case.
翻译:来过这里很多次了。我通常是带学生来,向他们介绍提契诺州及其精华景点。贝林佐纳及其城堡绝对是其中之一。
这座城堡从镇上很容易到达。您可以开车过来,把车停在山顶。不过,步行上去也很不错。台阶可能对某些人来说有点陡,但实际上步行只需10分钟。
蒙特贝罗城堡是一座13世纪由鲁斯卡家族建造的要塞。它坐落在城市上方90米处,米兰统治者为了保护重要的阿尔卑斯山贸易路线而对其进行了扩建。该建筑群拥有坚固的15世纪防御工事,包括一条深邃的护城河和独特的圆形外塔。2000年,它与该市的另外两座中世纪城堡一起被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。如今,这里设有一座考古博物馆,展示着古代的地区文物,并可饱览壮丽的山谷景色。
虽然我们没有进去参观(需要门票),但从外面欣赏的景色已经足够令人心旷神怡了。更令人惊喜的是俯瞰整个小镇,尤其是卡斯特尔格兰德城堡的景色!
城堡周围有很多空间可以散步、拍照,甚至野餐。古老的城墙环绕着这里,拍出来的照片非常漂亮。
即使您在镇上的时间很短,也不要错过这段短暂的步行之旅。穿过镇中心的教堂后左转,然后向上走即可。当然,千万不要错过卡斯特尔格兰德城堡。那里有电梯可以上去,以防万一。
