AM Piedmont and Aosta Valley AM Lombardy and Aosta Valley AM Family & Kids
Looking like a grim feudal castle, it is actually a comfortable dwelling built for the love of a young bride. For those who visit it has in store not only modern and contemporary art collections, but also a breathtaking 360° panorama of the valley.
Castello in pietra con torre centrale circondata da un anello luminoso, immerso tra montagne e boschi al crepuscolo.

Perched on a rocky promontory overlooking the valley floor and surrounded by a park of over 50,000 square metres with plant species from all over the world, the castle was erected in the early 20th century by Baron Carlo Maurizio Gamba in honour of his beloved bride Angélique Passerin d'Entrèves.

The marvellous rooms of the residence now house the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of the Autonomous Region of Valle d'Aosta, with more than 1,200 works of painting, sculpture, graphics and photography. Temporary exhibitions and activities take place throughout the year.

Reservation recommended especially on weekends. Reservations can be made at this link (by paying the pre-sale) or on site at one of the tourist offices that are Museum Pass sales points (Aosta, Pont Saint-Martin and Courmayeur). The season ticket holder must always pass by the ticket office before the visit.


Accessibility: For the physically disabled, the secondary access is recommended, from which you are then accompanied to the main entrance. The visit is accessible by lift. Presence of disabled toilets.
