Capriolo is typically medieval with the remains of its ancient walls and castle. It stands on a hill, with a second hill, S. Onofrio, immediately behind, and ahs a clear view over the vineyards of Franciacorta and Lake Iseo. In its old section there are ancient farmhouses and other rural buildings made from large round stones, and aristocratic villas such as the 12^th century Palazzo Ochi and 16^th century Palazzo Lantieri de Paratico.
The Agricultural and Wine Museum Ricci Curbastro at 37, via Adro contains hundreds of objects, tools and equipment which were used at one time in the fields, the wine-cellars and houses and which now are difficult if not impossible to find.
They represent the roots of Franciacorta's present culture.

Erbusco

Erbusco is one of Franciacorta's main manufacturing centres.
It is also the seat of the voluntary Consortium that manages the D.O.C. Franciacorta wines. Its origins are very ancient, as shown by the prehistoric and Roman finds discovered on its territory.
Since the 15^th century Erbusco has been one of the Brescian nobility's favourite country resorts and it can boast one of the most beautiful and important villas in the area: Villa Lechi, built during the 16^th and 17^th centuries, whose unmistakable outline with its wide galleries can be seen from way off. The old village is picturesque and inside the remains of the castle stands the church of S. Maria Assunta, one of the best examples of Lombard Romanesque architecture, decorated with elegant 15^th century frescoes. Its ancient Carnival is still famous.
