The castle rises up from the Lake Trasimeno Major Island (Isola Maggiore), easly accessible by a boat in a few minutes form the Port of Tuoro sul Trasimeno, or, from the the Port of Passignano sul Trasimeno. Guglielmi dates back to the IX century and consists of the main castle which is surrounded by six towers with crenellated battlement on the roof, a drawbridge, church with internal courtyards all surrounded by 4.5 Hectares of lush land. The castle was built in 1328 as a Convent which was also ordered to be constructed by the Saint Francis Church. The Marquis Guglielmi restructured the castle and enlarged it to three times the size between 1885 and 1891. The interior of the castle is immersed with soaring halls once displaying a variety of antiquities, chinoiserie, weapons and armor. The castle because of its unique location between Umbria and Tuscany is perfect for restoring Marchese Gulgielmi's masterpiece back to a five star standard. It has been recently updated but would be ideal as a hotel or lavish private residence.
