Bardi Castle, also known as Landi Castle, is an imposing fortification that stands on a red jasper "rock" in the town of the same name in the province of Parma. Located in the center of the Ceno valley, the building overlooks the point where the Noveglia stream flows into the Ceno. Even if today the geographical position of the village seems secluded and outside the commercial and tourist routes, in the Middle Ages, when the routes and the need for control of the territory were different, it was an important stop on the route of one of the many variants of the route Francigena.
