Castello di San Girolamo, Medieval castle in Narni, Italy

The Castello di San Girolamo stands on Via Flaminia Ternana, featuring remaining elements of a church, bell tower base, and structural components from different periods.

Originally established around 1300 as a Benedictine convent, Cardinal Berardo Eroli renovated the structure in 1471 to accommodate Franciscan friars for four centuries.

The church interior contained the Coronation of the Virgin of Narni by Ghirlandaio until 1871, commissioned by Cardinal Eroli in 1486.

The castle underwent transformation plans to become a four-star accommodation facility focusing on religious activities while supporting sports, cultural, and educational events.

Between 1920 and 1970, the castle functioned as a seminary for the Sacred Heart of Jesus Missionaries, training future priests including singer-songwriter Rino Gaetano.
