Description

Sforza Cesarini castle is placed in Rocca Sinibalda, a Municipality in the Province of Rieti in the Italian region Lazio. Originally built in 1084, in the 1530s the castle was transformed into a fortress by the architect Baldassarre Peruzzi on commission of Cardinal Alessandro Cesarini.
Between the 17th and 18th centuries the fiefdom passed into the hands of several families, including the Mattei and the Lante della Rovere. The building houses frescoes from that period.
