Los primeros testimonios documentales del castillo de Caracciolo se remontan a la época angevina, pero el señorío se fundó probablemente antes y, según algunos historiadores, en torno al siglo IV.
Totalmente reconstruido en 1571, quedan vestigios del castillo en el torreón cilíndrico, que emerge de la masa maciza, y en la semitorre circular, situada en el centro de las murallas para interrumpir la uniformidad de la cortina y asegurar una defensa más eficaz.
Los Caracciolos fueron los responsables de las sucesivas ampliaciones y de la singular forma, casi triangular, de tres plantas.
Una escalera de piedra al aire libre conduce a una terraza en el terraplén frente a la entrada principal.
La familia Caracciolo, a través de diversos avatares, siguió siendo la propietaria del feudo y del castillo hasta 1857, cuando el último miembro de la familia, Maria Giulia, lo legó a su sobrino Luigi Barracco.
