The Medici of Musso and the Lake Como fortress
On Lake Como a 500 foot rock guards the Castle of Musso. Gian Giacomo Medici seized Musso after murder and intrigue, fortifying the rock and taxing nearby trade. A Spanish plot led by Villaterelo aimed to seize it, but Medici’s countermove annihilated the invaders. After years of conflict he sold Musso to the Duke of Milan and left in tears.
