The majestic medieval castle that towers over the town represents an authentic historical jewel. The castle's origins date back to the early Middle Ages, but it was in the 10th century that it became an integral part of the Canossa defense system. Over the course of the 14th and 15th centuries, the castle underwent further transformations that made it an imposing structure: it is surrounded by a moated wall and houses a church, a charming village and an inner fortress protecting the keep, as well as a tower to the south, beautifully restored today. The entrance gates, particularly the "Porta Mantovana," feature solid fortifications and an elegant Gothic arch.<br /><br />Among the other architectural gems of the place, the Gonzaga Palace, built in the mid-15th century, stands out. This sumptuous building, commissioned by the marquises of Mantua Ludovico Gonzaga and Barbara of Brandenburg, stands next to the city walls and also includes a preexisting tower. Over time, the palace passed into the hands of the Guerrieri family, appointed vicar of Volta by the Gonzagas themselves. The building assumed the role of municipal seat in 1515 and currently houses various functions. Inside the complex, there is also an infopoint that houses a tasting and refreshment point, promoting the tourist and food and wine excellence of the area, famous for its high-quality wines.
