Nowadays, Borgo Storico Seghetti Panichi is a treasure trove of architectural, pictorial, historic and botanical beauty where every stone, every wall and every room tells a story spanning seven centuries.
Since the Middle Ages, the residence served as a defensive military fortress due to its location on the border of the Kingdom of the two Sicilies.
Towards end of the 1600s the architecture of the residence was transformed by the addition of the façade, changes to the main staircase and the creation of the majestic entrance gallery.
