Best Castle in Italia

A	Antonietta Carrabs on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Non è il solito castello dato che è stato adibito a prigione. Le prigioni appunto sono la visita, di grande interesse storico
G	Gianluca Proietti Picotti on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Struttura tenuta in condizioni pietose, sporcizia e degrado in ogni angolo, la struttura ha molte potenzialità che non vengono valorizzate. Cade a pezzi. X il prezzo che si paga si dovrebbe pretendere molto di più. Structure kept in pitiful conditions, dirt and decay in every corner, the structure has many potentials that are not exploited. It falls apart. X the price you pay you should expect a lot more.
L	Ludovico Capo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ci sono stato domenica in visita, posto spettacolare, sulla terrazza una vista su tutta gaeta magnifica! Le guide informatissime sulla storia del castello. Il prezzo economico 10€ a persona, ne vale assolutamente la pena. I was there on Sunday on a visit, spectacular place, on the terrace a view of all magnificent gaeta! The guides knowledgeable about the history of the castle. The cheap price 10 € per person, it is absolutely worth it.
M	Midnight Blonde on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Imperdibile il Castello Angioino-Aragonese, uno dei simboli della città. Da alcune fonti emerge che il Castello di Gaeta fu costruito nel VI secolo, nel periodo della guerra contro i Goti. Fonti più sicure datano la costruzione, invece, al XII secolo, quando Federico II di Svevia, per difendere il proprio territorio durante la guerra tra Guelfi e Ghibellini, giunse a Gaeta per dar l’avvio alla costruzione di alcune fortificazioni, tra cui il castello. Oggi, l’edificio si compone di due parti: quella più antica risalente all’epoca angioina e quella più moderna fatta costruire da Carlo V d’Asburgo. Prezzo del biglietto 10 euro, si visita solo in alcuni periodi dell’anno Do not miss the Angevin-Aragonese Castle, one of the symbols of the city. From some sources it emerges that the Castle of Gaeta was built in the sixth century, during the period of the war against the Goths. Safer sources date the construction, however, to the twelfth century, when Frederick II of Swabia, to defend his territory during the war between the Guelphs and Ghibellines, arrived in Gaeta to start the construction of some fortifications, including the castle . Today, the building consists of two parts: the oldest one dating back to the Angevin era and the more modern one built by Charles V of Habsburg. Ticket price 10 euros, to be visited only in certain periods of the year

Vale la pena sia per il luogo che per il panorama. Facilmente raggiungibile sia a piedi dal centro che in auto! A place full of history, to be absolutely visited to better understand the wonderful Gaeta and its historical importance, thanks to the passion of the guys who guarantee the opening of the place! It is worth it for both the location and the view. Easily accessible both on foot from the center and by car!

L	Lois Arbogast on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had the most unexpectedly lovely trip to Castello Angioino today with our five young children ages 9, 7, 5, 3, and 1 largely due to our amazing tour guide, Stefano. He was engaging and knew what to teach the kids to keep them interested and asking questions, while also learning the history of the castle. The view from the top is spectacular, but it was the little tales on the tour that made this stop really stand out to us. I won’t spoil the surprises, but it was fascinating to hear about some of the prisoners and tales from the castles time as a prison. Highly recommend making this a stop if you’re in the Gaeta area! Much different from so many of the other castles we have visited and a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. Gaeta is a hidden gem!
