Originally a tower the Castello di Falconara was mainly used for the breeding of falcons, hence the name. Later it passed to the Branciforte family, under them it became the present-day castle of Falconara. During the last two centuries the castle was restored and embellished with battlements, turrets and more wings.
Under the Chiaramonte Bordonaro family the whole building was converted and became a modern and luxurious mansion with large halls, small rooms and corridors, decorated with paintings, antique furniture and precious ceramics.
Today you cannot only visit to the castle but also hold meetings or celebrate your wedding in this precious and elegant place. The experienced staff will be happy to help and provide any services needed.
