Il ricetto è in genere una struttura fortificata protetta all'interno di un paese dove si accumulavano i beni (foraggi, vini, etc.) del signore locale o della popolazione e dove, occasionalmente, si ritirava la popolazione stessa in caso di attacchi dall'esterno. Quello di Candelo è uno degli esempi meglio conservati di questo tipo di struttura medievale presente in diverse località del Piemonte ed in alcune zone dell'Europa centrale. Sorge nel comune di Candelo, in provincia di Biella. Al pari di altri ricetti, quello di Candelo non risulta essere mai stato destinato a uso di abitazione stabile. Tuttavia, al pari di altri - per le sue origini economiche, storiche, collettive e democratiche ante-litteram - è stato oggetto di approfonditi studi storici ed architettonici. In virtù della sua posizione, da esso si gode una vista panoramica sull'intero comprensorio delle Prealpi biellesi, a nord, e verso il Baraggione in direzione sud. (Fonte Wikipedia)
