moat of Castello Estense, Ferrara

Begun in 1385 and remodelled in later years (especially by Girolamo da Carpi in the 16th century), the Castello Estense is a fortified palace which was the former home of the Este family in Ferrara, Emilia-Romagna, Italy.

 

Taken from within the palace, this is a view of the northern bastion where it crosses the moat onto Viale Cavour, opposite the Corso Ercole I d'Este.
