Situated in the city of Rome, in an age-old park adorned with many fountains, this ancient residence takes its name from the castle that was built in the year 1400 by the Marquis Francesco Crescenzi on the site of an ancient tower dated 1100. Great artists such as Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin were inspired by this spot and often portrayed it in their famous landscape paintings, to the extent that the valley below, known as the ‘Pussino Valley’, has become, thanks to its natural configuration, the Parco di Roma Golf Club.
An enchanting road through the woods leads to the castle, the private residence of Princess Sofia Borghese Ferrari Sardagna di Neuburg and Hohenstein, the daughter of Prince Scipione Borghese, a direct descendent of Pope Paul V.
The family flag flies from one of the castle’s towers. Donna Sofia has cleverly and lovingly returned this enchanting place to life, opening the courtyards for exclusive events and a number of the outbuildings for friends who wish to stay here.
