One of the city's most emblematic structures, Udine Castle sits on a hill in the center of town. Modern scientists contest that the hill is of artificial origin, probably dating back to the Bronze Age. The castle itself was built in the 16th century on the ruins of an older fortress. On the ground floor you can visit two museums, with notable works of art by the likes of Tiepolo, Caravaggio, and Carpaccio. The third floor contains another museum dedicated to photography. Other collections stored inside the castle, including one dedicated to numismatics, can also be visited by special appointment.

We didn't go inside but it was a lovely view from up on the hill and there's a great legend about a barbarian king who made the hill to overlook a battle.

Beautiful castle on top of the hill in Udine. Atilla the Hun was legendary believed to have set up his headquarters here in Udine. Interesting fact, 6 months ago the commute was excavating the hill to put an elevator since it is quite a climb. They discovered that the hill was man made and not a natural hill. Udine lies in the valley close to the Alps that boarder Slovenia and Austria. This new discovery proves that Attila the Han did create this hill with his soldiers carrying mud in their boots and Helmuts. My son is not convinced since it was quite a climb
