Do you want to buy a papal palace? You have such an opportunity! Stunning Castello di Tavoleto of the 14th century once owned by the Pope, goes on sale for €4.9 million.

At different times the castle, located 12 miles from Rimini, was the preserve of Popes and Umbrian nobility, and in 1960 was acquired by a private owner. The new owner made a great deal of work to repair the castle and restore the historic appearance. The entire electrical and plumbing systems were completely newly renovated.
