Il Castello S.r.l.

The Castle of Lippiano was mentioned for the first time in documents dated 1195 preserved in the Bishop's Palace of Città di Castello.

In 1250 The Castle was owned by the Lambardi family under the rule of Frederick II. The Marquises Of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina occupied the Castle in 1336 , taking it from the Tarlati family which in turn had taken it from the Lambardi family. This possession was recognised and legalised, so to speak, with an Imperial Diploma issued by Charles V of Luxemburg establishing the Feud of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, established that the feud should be governed by the oldest member of the family and that this person should live in the Castle of Lippiano.

In 1564, the members of the family decided to appoint a Vicar at Monte Santa Maria Tiberina and one at Lippiano in order to administer justice.

In 1815, the feud of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina was suppressed together with many other European feuds.

In article 100 of the resolution of the Congress of Vienna dated 9th June 1815, the former feud was transferred to the Grand Duke of Tuscany which took possession of it on 29th August 1815.

The Family of the Marquises of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina was deprived of all its rights to rule the area but maintained possession of the Castle and its assets.

In 1917, Prince of san Faustino transferred ownership of the Castle of Lippiano to the Mignini Family, the current owners.
