About Castello di Moncrivello

Fortifications, Historic, Monuments And Memorials, Interesting Places, Castles, Monuments

Nel XIII secolo Moncrivello già disponeva di una rocca fortificata e, pur essendo stato venduto al comune di Vercelli, rimaneva sotto le giurisdizione della diocesi vercellese. Nel 1399, dopo un breve periodo di egemonia di Antonio Fieschi - del casato dei Fieschi di Genova - infelice al punto da provocare l'insorgenza della gente del borgo, la giurisdizione passò ai Savoia, nella persona di Amedeo VIII.
In quel periodo la roccaforte manteneva essenzialmente un ruolo militare. Di tale epoca si è conservato il grande torrione quadrangolare, con finestre ornate in cotto e caditoie, che, attraversato da un passo carraio, immette nel cortile del castello
