The castle, built with a military function to protect the territory from barbarian invasions, since the 12th century has become the permanent home of the noble family of Porcía and Brugnera, who ruled these lands for eight centuries and held important political and military positions under the Serenissima Republic of Venice. .

The family had their castle of origin in Prata di Pordenone. At the beginning of the 13th century, Gabriel and Frederick, sons of Guecello I de Prata, drew the boundaries of their possessions. The first line descended from Gabriel and over time took possession of the castles of Porcia and Brugnera. The second line descended from Frederick but came into conflict with Venice and eventually died out in the 16th century.
