The fortress was seized by the Ducal Chamber of Milan together with the family possessions (including Castello di Vaprio). The family then managed to get the castle back in 1653 thanks to Manfredi's niece who had married the Marquis Pozzo D'Annone. The castle remained the property of the Pozzo D'Annone family until 1864, when they sold it to the Baron and General of Sabaudia Paolo Solari, diplomat and aide to Vittorio Emanuele II. In 1867 Solaroli was awarded the title of Marquis of Briona by King Vittorio Emanuele II. Relics belonging to Paolo Solaroli are visible in the Castle.

During the 13th century. the properties of the counts were replaced by the possessions of the capital families, linked to Novara and its expansionist policy. With the advent of the Visconti lordship Briona entered the sphere of influence of the dominions of Milan. In 1356 it became the possession of the Viscontis who made it a base for their fights against the Marquises of Monferrato. As such, in 1363 it was sacked by the "white company" of the Englishman Albert Sterz that Giovanni Paleologo, Marquis of Monferrato, had hired and which devastated the Novara area for years.
