History
An early 20th-century castle
According to the entry on Gino Coppedè, the architect designed in Bucine the Villa Frisoni, called Castello di Lupinari, for the cavaliere Luigi Edoardo Frisoni; work began in 1906 and was completed in 1908. It is therefore not a medieval castle, but a building in an eclectic style.
