The Escape Castle will be based on some of the most beautiful cantos of Dante Alighieri's Commedia, from Inferno to Paradiso, not forgetting Purgatory of course. Local legends tell, among other things, of Dante's passage at Contignaco Castle, which once belonged to a branch of his family, the Aldighieri (or Alighieri) of Parma: reading Dante in Contignaco is therefore coloured with very fascinating hues.
