The Orsini di Fiano Romano ducal castle was built between 1489 and 1493 on commission of Niccolò III Orsini, count of Pitigliano, Sovana and Nola. The Castle took on the name of Castello ducale only in the seventeenth century, when the fief of Fiano passed from the Orsini family to Caterina de 'Nobili. It was in fact the son of Caterina de 'Nobili, Cardinal Francesco Sforza, who after receiving the fiefdom as a gift from his mother in 1606 had Fiano built as a duchy with a bull of Pope Paul V of 18 July 1608.
