The Rocca Albornoziana, a castle in Spoleto, is a testament to Italian Gothic architecture. Constructed from 1363 to 1367, it was overseen by Cardinal Spanish Egidio Albornoz and designed by Matteo Gattaponi. The Castle features the Cortile d'Onore, used by various popes and now the permanent home of the National Museum of the Duchy of Spoleto. The Cortile also saw visits from Lucrezia Borgia, though the exact nature and dates of her visits are not specified in the story.
