About Castello di Petrata
Castello di Petrata is a 14th-century fortress set within a private 50-hectare park just 5 km from Assisi, with panoramic views of the basilica and surrounding valley. Originally built as a villa in 1340 along the Franciscan path between Assisi and Gubbio, it was transformed into a fortress in the 15th century by Sperello Sperelli and now operates as a Country House and wedding venue. Multiple halls accommodate 40 to 300 guests, The Limonaia provides an elegant garden-view indoor reception, and the estate's olive groves, orchards, and meadows create distinct outdoor settings. The 'roving banquet' concept moves guests through different areas of the castle during the celebration — a uniquely theatrical approach.
