Even if Castiglione is a small village, there are some interesting monuments. The Baronial  Palace was St. Michael Arcangel's churchoriginally a castle with defensive purposes. The  façade has  eight large arcades and beautiful decorations. The Basilian Crypt of the Holy Spirit has  some ancient paintings. The Chapel of the Annunciation dates to the 16t century and is very simple. The Church of St. Michele Archangel was built in the 17th century, its façade has a beautiful portal and a big window. Close to the Chapel of Saint Mary Magdalena there used to be a big fair in the 18th century. The fair was important because here was set the price of the grains.
