Il castello di Proh (pronuncia: prü) sorge in pianura nell'omonima frazione del comune di Briona, al limitare dei primi pendii delle colline novaresi. Fu edificato per volere di Francesco Sforza verso la metà del XV secolo probabilmente non per scopi militari in quanto a breve distanza esistevano già i castelli strategici di Briona, Barengo e Castellazzo Novarese.Già all'inizio del XII secolo Corrado III di Svevia aveva concesso il feudo ai conti di Biandrate che eressero il cosiddetto "castellaccio" sulle alture retrostanti, andato distrutto nel 1362 durante la guerra tra il marchese del Monferrato e Galeazzo Visconti. Come il vicino castello di Briona, a metà del 400 passò in feudo ai Tornielli, seguendone le stesse sorti. Nel 1495 fu occupato dall'esercito di Ludovico il Moro. Nel 1597 passò ai Caccia mentre nel 1672 fu acquistato dai fratelli Cattaneo di Novara. Nell'Ottocento fu trasformato in cascina dalla famiglia Fantoni e, sul finire del secolo, venduto al conte Arese Lucini. Nel XX secolo fu acquistato dapprima dalla famiglia Varelli ed infine passò agli attuali proprietari, i Marelli di Milano. Vista da nord-ovest Il castello ha subito nei secoli molteplici sistemazioni. Si presenta a pianta rettangolare asimmetrica con due torri circolari agli angoli nord-est e sud-ovest. In passato era circondato da un fossato, oggi scomparso, e presentava due ingressi dotati di ponte levatoio: una pusterla sul lato est ed una porta carraia ad ovest. Tutto l'edificio presenta un apparato a sporgere con lunghe caditoie decorate a dente di sega e ha un'altezza uniforme, ad esclusione del tratto di cortina tra la torricella d'ingresso e l'inizio del primo fabbricato sul lato orientale. Come indicato dalla targa apposta all'ingresso, il castello, ormai in rovina, fu restaurato nel 1960, rispettando le forme originarie e ripristinando la torre più alta al lato dell'ingresso principale. Degli affreschi che decoravano un tempo l'edificio sopravvivono solo un trittico sbiadito sulla parete est del cortile, raffigurante la Madonna col Bambino tra i santi, e lo stemma dei Cattaneo sulla torre sud-ovest. #castelli #notturno #architettura

Hello Henry, beautiful postcard of a place that deserves to be visited. According've chosen well the time that leaves room for the headlights to put well out the manor. Disturbs a bit ', again for my taste, the pond or paddy, because it distracts. I think form another picture that is detached from the castle. It 'a very personal taste and take it for what it's worth. Good evening.

Riccardo

Thank you for visiting Riccardo and your considerations. The "lake / paddy" you speak of is just a rice field! :-D
This, in my opinion, was the only alternative for shooting. THE castle is located in a clearing near the state just outside Proh spaces and you do not have; I did not even take it back from the front which seemed worse. For the distraction that causes perhaps paddy you not have a point; I should, perhaps, darken it further to avoid the gaze focuses on reflection rather than on the subject of the shot order.
Thank you for the information

mah .... I like, despite the reflection of paddy, but ... I should have worn boots to catch the reflection of the castle! :-D :-D :-D Here, however, cut off only one piece in considering that there are no particular subjects and also become more scenic! Light and colors handled very well! Great value and a dear greeting! Ciaoooo !!! :-P :-P ;-)

Luca160 :-P
cat :-P
Fulvio :-P :-D I had the boots I had gone there to take a picture to another location in the area but had not that I set for myself; I folded up this. For cutting below I saw that, cutting it as you suggested, and by matching the start of the right with the paddy low singl always right guadagnado a bit of aerial part was not bad !! Maybe next
