In 1408 the site was feud Nicholas Pigs. In 1596 the castle belongs to Violante Marino, then at least to Pensabene Grifeo and who still hold and manage the premises. A bit 'of legend * It is said that a nun who wore a boot all gold studded with precious stones and diamonds lived in the cellars of the castle, in a sort of spiritual retreat. Nowadays, it seems, that the full moon appears his restless ghost wandering the halls, then down the stairs to the balcony, where she would stop. It is said, therefore, that the lucky will be able to see her wandering around at night and take the boots will remain owner forever .* (Source: John Vallone, the castles of Sicily, Newton & Compton, 2005, pp. 152-153)
