History

From the municipality of Spoleto to Foligno

In 1263 the castle of Roccafranca and that of Verchiano, belonging to Spoleto, were bought by the municipality of Foligno. From 1305 to 1439 they belonged to the Trinci, lords of Foligno.

The Guerrieri

According to Wikipedia, buildings in the place were restored to their present forms by the Guerrieri family of Roccafranca; Roccafranca and Verchiano are still part of the archdiocese of Spoleto-Norcia.
