The Castèl lemon house, which is northwest of the old town center and stands against the rocky wall of the Mughéra mountain, is just a portion of the large lemon grove that once stretched from the Mura valleys, Via Pozze and Via Castello to the Màndola valley. The garden, which covers an area of 1,633 square meters, is divided perpendicularly into two parts by the cùen dela Marches'àna, on which the main cas'èl is built on several levels. It extends to the south, in part, on a single terrace and on three in another section. To the north it is divided on four còle terraces that border to the north with the valèt del Castèl, on which another small cas'èl is built. It was built in the early 18th century, but has clearly undergone remodeling over the years. The date "April 15, 1786" can still be seen on a water trough, which might refer to the construction of the structure itself or of the irrigation channels on the terraces.
