Inside the abandoned 17th-century castle that used to be Europe's largest drug lab... The stunning Castello di Sammezzano was built by Spanish nobles in the 17th century in Tuscan, Italy, and later went on to become the biggest heroin lab ever raided in Europe
After World War 2, the castle was turned into a hotel-restaurant, where a number of famous faces have stayed, including a visit from Emperor Charlemagne – also known as Charles the Great. For the past two decades, Castello di Sammezzano has been abandoned, however has remained in near-pristine condition and looks just as incredible now as when it was first built. The impressive palace, dubbed Castello di Sammezzano, can be found in Tuscany, spanning across more than 170,000 square metres, including more than 150 rooms caves, fountains and even artificial dens.
However, the stunning castle, which was built by Spanish nobles in the 17th century, was abandoned some 20 years ago, after being taken over by an international drug ring back in the 1980s and turned into the continent's largest heroin lab.
