Rocca Meli Lupi di Soragna
About
Rocca Meli Lupi di Soragna is a medieval fortress‑turned palazzo perched above the town of Soragna in Emilia‑Romagna. Built in 1385 by Bonifacio and Antonio Lupi, it has been home to the noble Meli Lupi family for eight centuries, preserving an astonishing collection of art, furnishings and frescoed rooms that showcase early Baroque splendour. Visitors can tour its richly decorated halls, including the "Sala del Baglione", the "Sala del Bocchirale", and the elegantly framed "Sala delle Donne" – each a living testament to the ornate taste of 17th‑century Polish craftsmen. The castle’s English‑style garden offers a tranquil setting that complements the grandeur of the interior. With guided tours available in multiple languages and an array of event spaces for weddings, conferences and cultural celebrations, Rocca Meli Lupi is a unique landmark that blends historical depth with contemporary hospitality.
