The original nucleus of the Castle comprises a lookout tower (built in about 1000) which was gradually incorporated into overall structure of the Castle. The whole building was enlarged over the centuries (13th, 15th and 18th centuries) and comprises three floors, plus attic and basement floors for a total area of about 3.900 m2 . In the basement there is a splendid cellar with large brickwork vaults and hewn stone walls. On the ground floor a 16th century ceremonial staircase   leads to the upper floors and to a tower inside which an old prison is still preserved intact. The first floor is extremely interesting for the frescoes decorating the entire ceiling of the 16th hall of state. A walkway runs around the whole Castle from where the whole of the underlying valley can be seen.

The Castle is currently a private residence but it can be rented out for ceremonies and congresses.

During summer, it is also possible to rent both the building and the park. Thanks to its architectural characteristics, the Castle is ideal for a wide variety of social occasions. The part made available to the company can cater for about 300 guests. As well as renting  out parts of the building, the company running the Castle of Lippiano may also provide supporting services such as floral decorations, music (only a support to ceremonies) and catering on request. The private church (17th century) will soon be available for hire, too, along with an accommodation structure for the guests of the Castle.
