Johnny Depp is trying to purchase a medieval fortress within the Italian countryside … however the city is not bought on having him, regardless that we all know he’d present deference as a neighbor.
Sources with direct information inform TMZ … the actor just lately toured a fortress in Montalto Dora, Italy — a small city with a bit over 3,000 individuals residing there — as a possible addition to his actual property portfolio. Nonetheless, we’re instructed nothing is official … however he’s contemplating a purchase.
The fortress is valued at about $4 million, and it is on the market … if he’s interested by claiming it as his personal.

Our sources say he’d respect any tips or rules imposed on the property — assuming this buy got here to fruition … which, for now, is not a positive factor. Actor Riccardo Scamarcio reportedly gave Johnny the tour … this as they shoot a film collectively.
The city’s mayor, Renzo Galletto, instructed the Publish Johnny won’t be the perfect individual to maneuver in … and would doubtless trigger extra hurt than good, particularly economically.
