HISTORICAL NOTES
Castello del Cassero boasts a history that dates back to the 10th century, with documented mention as early as 1029. The current structure was formally established between 1375 and 1377, rooted in a remarkable historical narrative.
The castle was founded by Niccolo Torriglioni, a naval admiral from Ancona, who received this fief directly from Pope Urban VI as a reward for his crucial role in escorting the Pope from Avignon to Rome. This direct connection to the Papacy lends the property immense historical prestige, setting it apart from other noble residences.
Originally conceived as a military fortification for the defense of Ancona, its strategic significance is reflected in its reconstruction following destruction and plundering. This history of resilience and rebirth stands as a powerful testament to the castle's enduring importance through centuries of change and conflict.
Over time, the castle underwent a significant transformation, evolving from a purely military stronghold into a noble residence. While only the main tower still retains its original Guelph-style battlements and lowered curtain walls, this adaptation is a testament to the castle's ability to evolve and endure.
