#Castelli Località Stellata frazione di Bondeno (FE). La “Rocca Possente” di Stellata, fu edificata intorno all'anno mille, ampliata e potenziata dagli Estensi nel 1362. La sua posizione strategica sul Po le permetteva di controllare la navigazione assieme alla Rocca di Ficarolo, il paese polesano del campanile pendente, posta sulla riva di fronte, alla quale era unita da una catena che impediva o permetteva il passaggio delle navi. Distrutta nel 1521 venne prontamente ricostruita. Particolare è la configurazione delle mura, poste di sbieco, per meglio opporsi alle artiglierie nemiche. La pianta a stella della struttura risale probabilmente a prima del 1570. Questa sua caratteristica forma ha dato il nome al paese. La rocca, come si può riscontrare anche dalla foto, è stata gravemente danneggiata dal terremoto del maggio del 2012 che ha colpito l'Emilia, sta ancora aspettando la messa in sicurezza ed il restauro che sembrerebbero prossimi./ Location Stellata fraction of Bondeno (FE). The "Mighty Fortress" by Stellata, was built during the eleventh century, expanded and enhanced by the Este family in 1362. Its strategic position on the Po allowed her to control navigation along the Rocca di Ficarolo, the country polesano the leaning tower, mail on the opposite bank, which was connected by a chain that prevented or allow the passage of ships. Destroyed in 1521 was quickly rebuilt. Detail is the configuration of the walls, placed sideways, the better to resist the enemy artillery. The star-shaped structure probably dates back to before 1570. This characteristic shape gave the village its name. The fortress, as can also be seen from the photo, has been severely damaged by the earthquake of May of 2012 that hit the Emilia, he is still waiting for the securing and restoration that would appear next.
