What survives of Moncalvo's fourteenth-century castle is two brick towers over the market square, linked by restored walkways that now hold the tourist office and a wine shop. The walls are freely accessible and the views reach across the Monferrato hills to the sanctuary of Crea. The square below hosts markets, festivals and December's Fat Ox Fair.
