The villa was built in 1576 (inscription on the access portal) by Cardinal Alessandro Sforza on the border between the county of Santa Fiora and the Papal States, together with the adjoining church of San Gregorio Magno and the partially lost wall curtain.
In particular, the structure was to serve the cardinal both as a summer residence and as a basis for the repression of the Brigandage, which was commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII.

The building is spread over three levels, with a central entrance portal overturned by a sixth arch where the noble coat of arms is placed. The stylistic elements testify the Renaissance origins of the complex. Inside, are visible traces of decorations and frescoes of the late century and Baroque period.
