It has since gone through many owners, including Giacomo Capece Galeota, a regent in the Tribunal of the Vicariate. The initial architect was Giovanni Fillippo De Adinolfo, followed by Giovanni Francesco Mormando and Giovanni Francesco Di Palma who completed the work in the 16th century. The base of the structure has rough piperno rock. The piano nobile has the largest windows, while the third floor has arched windows. In the 1700s, a fourth story was added.
