Castello di Bigliolo ruderi

The castle of Bigliolo was one of the fortifications of the great Episcopal Court of Lunigiana, which suffered from various events related to wars in the thirteenth century such as those between the Bishop and the Malaspina in Val by Aulellà, who passed the castle into the hands of the Marquises of Filattiera. In 1412 the Biglioli Dynasty became extinct and in 1418 Bigliolo passed under the rule of Florence. Bigliolo was attacked in 1523 by Giovanni de' Medici. In 1568, the sons of Lazarus I divided the marquisate into two parts.
