In the late Middle Ages, the village was a fiefdom of the Genoese Spinola family until 1518, who built the castle in 1100. In 1518 Tolomeo Spinola was left without heirs and passed as an inheritance to his friend Agostino Adorno, of the Genoese Adorno family. In the 17th century the castle suffered serious damage following a landslide and shortly afterwards the current Botta Adorno castle and stately palace was built in its elegant style, still privately owned. The castle has an elegant Baroque style portal and a chapel dedicated to Saint Caterina Fieschi Adorno, great-granddaughter of Pope Innocent IV and wife of Giuliano Adorno, who lived between the 15th and 16th centuries.
