Castello Gamba

Sebastian R. — Google Maps 4/5

If Friday the 13th is considered a day of bad luck it was correct for this Friday of June 2025. I had seen on the internet site of this castle that it would be closed till June 13th and closed it was! I had even sent a mail two days beforehand to ask from which date it would be open but received no answer. Needless to say, I had to be satisfied with touring the large park around the castle, eat some apricots on a bench in the shadow and admire a couple of sculptures. When I later the same day arrived at Castello Savoia I was informed that Castello Gamba would be closed till at least the second half of the month of July. It would have been nice if the relevant internet site would have been updated!! I'll be back some other time. We returned to Castello Gamba a warm Saturday mid August of 2025 when the renovation had been finished and the museum reopened to the public. We were almost alone despite being in the middle of the most intense vacation period in Italy. The permanent exhibition...

Interesting museum of contemporary art in a castle. Beautiful view to Aosta Valley from the upper floor

This is not one of those massive fortified medieval castles perched on top of a hill or rock, rather an elegant aristocratic residence built in the early 1900s. But you can still admire a beautiful panorama and the Dora Baltea from it, and enjoy its vast grounds. More importantly, it contains the modern art collection of the Val d'Aosta region (plus other temporary exhibitions), which is very interesting and allows one to get know the works of some local artists, beside more famous Italian ones. The price is very reasonable (currently 6 euros) and the personnel is very polite and helpful.
