Historical background

The origin of Castello Teofilatto is certainly among the oldest in Italy. Already in Roman times, it was a strategic fortified tower, and it is documented to have been inside the Fortress of St. Benedict in 529, as chronicles of the time attest. The striking manor house belonged between the 10th and 12th centuries to the powerful Roman family of Theophylact, in particular among its illustrious personages Pope John XII, who had vast estates throughout the territory at the time. At the end of the 13th century, it became the residence of Pope Boniface VIII Caetani and his Family, who transformed it into an inviolable fortress. In the last century, in the alternation of events, it returned to the ownership of the Teofilattos.
