It was the prerogative of the Counts of Anguillara, Della Rovere and Farnese from 1526 to 1649, under the ownership of the Della Rovere the Castle underwent major changes, in particular between 1475 and 1480 with the restructuring desired by Pope Sixtus IV and entrusted to the Florentine architect Giovanni Dolci who modified it adding the circular tower and the four fortified towers at the corners, which also gave the castle the current popular name "I Torrioni". Eminent characters stayed here including Pope Sixtus IV and Pope Paul III. In 1649 it became the property of the Holy See which ceded it in 1756 to the Genoese Girolamo Marè, who undertook to preserve it and embellish it. DESCRIPTION OF THE SALTS Ground floor level 1 a.
