Whats So Special About Castello del Capitano delle Artiglierie?

 

Castello del Capitano delle Artiglierie | A Hidden Castle Wedding Venue in Tuscanyโ€™s Peaceful Neighbourhood

For couples dreaming of a castle wedding in Italy, but craving something a little more under the radar โ€” Castello del Capitano delle Artiglierie is the one.

Set in a quiet pocket where Tuscany meets Emilia-Romagna, this 16th-century fortress offers all the beauty and romantic drama of a Tuscan wedding venue, with fewer crowds and a lot more charm. Designed by Renaissance master Baldassarre Lanci and commissioned by Cosimo I deโ€™ Medici, the castle sits inside Terra del Sole, a perfectly preserved walled town that feels like itโ€™s been plucked from a painting.

From frescoed ceilings and vast banquet halls to leafy gardens and candlelit courtyards, the castleโ€™s mix of grandeur and warmth makes it ideal for stylish destination weddings in Italy. The grounds are perfectly set up for al fresco ceremonies and receptions, with flexible indoor spaces as a backup.

Hosting up to 15 overnight guests on-site, the property also features one standout detail: a private, soundproofed disco where the party can continue until 5am โ€” no noise curfew, no compromise.

Elegant, relaxed, and deeply romantic, this is a venue where you can marry like Medici royalty โ€” and dance like no oneโ€™s watching.

Public Holidays

Each town in Italy has it's own patron saint and shuts down to celebrate the saintโ€™s day each year (e.g. Rome is Sts. Peter and Paul, June 29th). Alongside Christmas and Easter, the other big religious festivals are Epiphany (6th January) and All Saints Day (1st November). All of Italy celebrates Labour Day (1st May) and also Liberation Day (April 25th).

Good Time to Go

Late April - Mid October

good to know

For those seeking a summer wedding in Italy, itโ€™s best to avoid the second half of August as most of Italy tends to take two weeks off after the holiday of Assumption of the Virginon, 15th August.

Thanks to the incredible support of Cesare and Michelle, who we met by chance, the organisation was impeccable. Their advice on suppliers and the organisation of the party proved to be fundamental in making the day unforgettable. The location is simply splendid, a real dream! We can only warmly recommend it.
