Visconti Castle, Castelbarco, Cislago, Varese(The current castle was built on the basis of a previous early medieval fortification. Owned by the Visconti family {Visconti branch of San Vito di Somma Lombard}, the structure was destroyed by the Swiss troops of Matteo Schiner in 1510 and subsequently rebuilt starting from 1620 by the Marquis Cesare II Visconti and his son Cesare III.)
