    The Piccolomini castle initially stood on the island of Ortucchio near Lake Fucino. The structure, in fact, was surrounded by a moat whose waters were connected to the lake. As the lake dried up, this protection disappeared.
    The Renaissance style structure was commissioned in 1488 by Antonio Todeschini Piccolomini, after the destruction of a previous fortification by Napoleone Orsini." (Wiki)
