Situated in Sicily, the 19th-century castle has gone on sale for €6 million (US$6.9 million), featuring three connected buildings, a whopping 22 rooms, eight bathrooms, and its very own park. Plus, it comes with specially commissioned artworks.

The 43,055-square-foot enclave has survived a major earthquake in 1908 and the bombings of World War II, lending even more to its appeal as a historical landmark.


Robb Report noted that within the property is a private chapel adorned with frescoes by famed Italian artist Giuseppe Sciuti. For bookworms and sommeliers-in-training, there is also a large library and wine cellar for all of your needs.
