This historic castle in the Barolo wine-producing region of the Langhe was once home to the "architect" of the Unification of Italy, Camillo Benso, the Count of Cavour. The Grinzane Cavour castle has a long history dating back to the 1300s, and as of 2014 was included by UNESCO in the list of World Heritage sites. It contains a museum, an enoteca, meeting rooms, and a cafe as well as the Marc Lanteri Al Castello restaurant.
