The name le "Fief" (Feud), was born at the time when the international language was French. These lands and possessions had been the fulcrum of the Visconti family since the year 1000, even before it rose to the Signoria, 1277 and then to the Duchy of Milan. The marquis Alberto Visconti d'Aragona (1811-1895), the last of the lineage, renewed the ancient tradition of hospitality that has evolved and, in our times, assumes a new concept of hospitality, which makes attention to detail and refinement of details the main elements of strength.
