Beschreibung
Pitigliano was an Etruscan and Roman city and is sometimes identified with Vicus Torianu of the Longobard era. Reliable documentation goes back to 1061, the year in which Pope Noccolò II confirmed the possession of the parish church of Pitigliano by the Bishop of Sovana. Even though the history of the location is obscure until the beginning of the 13 C, it is known for certain that the castle had belonged for some time to the Aldobrandeschi Counts, who defended it against territorial expansion by the municipality of Orvieto.
