INTERESTING FACTS
Castel San Michele, named after the saint to whom the chapel was dedicated, or Castello di Ossana, is perched on a rocky spur. It was strategically positioned between the Trentino region and the Upper Brescia area, enjoying full civil and criminal administration under the Episcopal Curia. It most likely dates back to the Longobard era, but the first definite records of it are from 1191.
