THE TELEGRAPH: The Italian castle where Carla Bruni-Sarkozy grew up is for sale.
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy’s fairy-tale castle in Italy is for sale for $28 million (£17m). The 11th-century residence in the Turin hills was renovated by Bruni’s grandfather, Virginio Bruni Tedeschi, the founder of Italian tyre manufacturer CEAT, and features frescos and marble floors. Bruni lived there as a child, sleeping in an elaborately decorated bedroom and playing in the 173 acres of parkland. >>> Anna Tyzack | Friday, November 20, 2009
