Castel Lagopesole

At the top of Lagopesole there is a castle, attributed to Frederick II and probably built between 1242 and 1250. In the courtyard of the castle of Lagopesole, the scene of the Sanhedrin of the film The Gospel According to Matthew (1964) by Pier Paolo Pasolini was shot. The director used non-professional actors chosen among the population of the medieval village.
