About "An Italian fairy tale castle Rocchetta Mattei"

by Truus Nijland

About the artwork

In the province of Bologna stands a beautiful castle. This castle was built in the 10th century by Dr. Mattei. The reason Dr. Mattei wanted to build this castle: it was to be the icing on the cake for his invention, electro-homeopathy, a kind of medicine based on natural herbs prepared in a secret process to cure all kinds of male diseases.

Through a labyrinth of stairs, you will reach one of the highlights of the castle: La Cappella. This room is an imitation of the Cathedral of Cordoba and contains the tomb of Count Cesare Mattei, who died on April 3 in 1896 at the age of 87.

The castle has long been abandoned, In 2006 the Fondazione della Cassa di Risparmio of Bologna bought the castle and the surrounding area. They started a large-scale renovation and it was not until August 9, 2015, that the castle could be visited again. Work on the castle is still in progress.
