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.
Today the castle is used as a site for weddings, ceremonies and shows.
The castle is located 12 miles from the city of Rimini and an hour's drive from the bustling city of Ancona. Six battle towers, the old mill and a park in the English style are included in the offer.
By the way the price of the castle is more than acceptable: have a look what can be purchased in different European countries for €4.9 million:
