In the 13th century it was a possession of the Malatesta family, under whom the town managed to prosper until the abolition of feudalism at the dawn of the 19th century. After the brief Napoleonic period, the municipality passed to the Church in 1816, followed by the Risorgimento uprisings, the passage of Giuseppe Garibaldi and the annexation to the Kingdom of Italy.

The etymology of the name Roncofreddo is uncertain, as are the origins of the town. The first documented information dates back to the documents of the Bavarian Code (an ancient administrative register of the Church of Ravenna dating back to the 7th-10th centuries, currently kept in Munich) where in n.70 mention is made of the concession by an archbishop of Ravenna to Tybalt , son of Leone del Duca Orso, of an estate called Fundum Roncofrigido.

The first news about the castle dates back to around the year one thousand. Subject to the control of the Archbishops of Ravenna, in 970 it was granted as a fief to Rodolfo, Count of Rimini. During the 12th century, with the rise to power of the Malatesta family, from the Guelph side, the castle of Sorrivoli, like most of the surrounding territories, also found itself under the control of this powerful family, and more precisely of the Malatesta branch of Sogliano . Subject in this period to the episcopate of Cesena, in 1290 it was reattributed to the archbishopric of Ravenna. What is certain is that in 1371, at the time of the census carried out by card. Anglico Sorrivoli was a possession of the Church of Ravenna and had "40 hearths". Enfeoffed in the 15th century to the Roverella family of Cesena, it remained under the control of this family until the extinction of the lineage, then passing to the Allocatelli Fabbri and after the Second World War to the parish prebend.

and exact origins are not documented, it can be hypothesized that around the year 1000 the locality was a possession of the Ravenna church. For years disputed between the Church and the municipality of Rimini, a first fortified tower was probably built in the 13th century. The first real fortress, built by the municipality of Rimini, dates back only to the 14th century. Possession of the Malatesta family until 1335, it was conquered by Francesco degli Ordelaffi, lord of Forlì and subsequently ceded to the Montefeltro family, to then return under the control of the Holy See and subsequently in 1433 again of the Malatesta family. In 1485 it returned to the control of the archbishop of Ravenna and was enfeoffed to the Roverella family of Cesena who held it until 1745. Important expansions and the transformation from a castle to a summer residence date back to this period, and at the same time the construction of homes on the ancient wall circuit was encouraged, demolishing the previous ones closest to the palace and creating the hanging garden in their place. The Roverellas were succeeded in 1745 by the Guiccioli, a family that held the castle until 1960, the year in which it was sold to the current owners, the Volpe counts.
