Located on the site of the ancient acropolis in a solitary and dominant position, it boasts more than a thousand years of history. Built starting from the eighth century, it became the center of the county of the feared de Ceccano in the Middle Ages.

Elegant building built at the end of the 19th century at the behest of the oenologist and Knight of Labor Stanislao Sindici. The project was carried out by Count Giuseppe Sacconi, the architect who designed the Altare della Patria in Rome. The castle was built with local limestone on the model of an ancient medieval fortress and was built in the center of a large park that still surrounds it. The building was initially used as a cellar for storing wine but over the years it has been converted into a meeting place for important artists who gravitated around the Mayors. For example, the Roman painters Aurelio and Cesare Tiratelli are mentioned. The famous Gabriele D'Annunzio was also hosted in the elegant residence.

Its foundation dates back to 1072, when the consul of Fondi Litfredo donated the territory to the Benedictine Monastery of Montecassino. The building had, from the fourteenth century, a purely defensive and sighting purpose, as can be deduced not only from the strategic position of the place, raised and from which you can enjoy an excellent view of the plain of Fondi and the adjacent mountains, but also from the structure: The plan, typically medieval, is square and with circular towers placed at the vertices of the sides and has numerous loopholes along the entire perimeter and is spread over 4 levels: ground floor, first floor, second floor and attic. Over time, the castle underwent numerous changes, not least that of the eighteenth century, which with the addition of a rectangular body with a gabled roof, gave the building its current appearance. The interior has maintained its initial appearance almost unchanged over time, with the addition between 1400 and 1500 of vaulted roofs with nails (sails) in correspondence with the openings. This intervention was carried out by the Caetani family, who in that period developed an aesthetic sense found in many other buildings in the city. Legend has it that the countess Giulia Gonzaga and a lover often met inside the fortress: it is said that she accidentally discovered a secret passage that led from the Baronial Castle to Monte Vago, from which she descended to reach the place.
