    Baronial Palace, located at the highest point of the Gavignano hill, was probably built by the Counts of Segni, owners of vast territorial estates. One of their descendants born in this same building in 1160 will become the famous Pope Innocent III.

    After the destruction in 1495, the building has undergone significant transformations that have left a minimal trace of the original structure. It becomes a real castle-residence: square shape, courtyard, large halls, servants' quarters, numerous rooms. A general renovation of the building began at the end of the 15th century by the new feudal lord, Cardinal Pietro Aldobrandini. In particular, the inversion of the main facade is noted, with the entrance to the building in a higher position than the level of the square.

    The most recent interventions are carried out in the twentieth century with the aim of restoring the ancient medieval aspect to the building.
