Castel Placeri

Three palaces and a garden in 1380, a ruin in 1774, houses in the 1920s.

Nothing remains of the medieval castle of Rumo, and we include it all the same: even a lost castle tells how this side valley was defended and inhabited. Information is scarce. The first record dates from 1323, when it belonged to the lords of Rumo; a description of 1380 says that it had at least three palaces and a garden.

At the end of the 14th century it was bought by Pietro and Finamante di Caldes, and it stayed in their family until 1464, when all the Caldes properties, castle included, passed to the Thun. Then it lost importance and was abandoned: in the view in the Atlas Tyrolensis of 1774 it is already a ruin, and it remained so until the 20th century. In the 1920s the last remains were demolished to make room for private houses.

Today in the valleys

Just a moment...

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
