From the height of its century of existence, Malaspina Castle still looks out over Belgodere. Its home, where it has always been useful over the years. Its construction was completed in 1892. This Victorian building, inspired by the Italian palaces, was first named Castle of La Costa and then Castle Malaspina.
The crypt adjacent to the building is still owned by the heirs of the Malaspina family and is due to be restored soon.
The public garden of the castle includes an orchard, an earthen terrace, a chapel in white Carrara marble, a caretaker's lodge and an agricultural building. It was the subject of a preliminary survey in 1996 and was included in the pre-inventory of remarkable gardens (Ministry of Culture, Directorate of Architecture and Heritage, and Ministry of Ecology and Sustainable Development).
