In Vigo di Ton, Castel Thun is a splendid example of Trentino castle architecture. Symbol of the ancient splendour of one of the most powerful families in Trentino, the magnificent and majestic Castel Thun overlooks Val di Non. Built in the 1250s, it was the main residence of the Thun family. The civil-military body is built in typically Gothic style, surrounded by a composite fortification complex with a regular plan consisting of lookout towers, bulwarks, crescent-shaped bastions, moat and a walkway. --- SORRY IF I AM LATE IN COMMENTING.....I HAVE SO LITTLE TIME...
