The original late 16th century religious building, was acquired by Matías de Casanate around 1625 and sold in 1647 to Captain Luís Freytas Pinto. Renovated with the addition of a façade featuring three entrance portals, the property was inherited in 1672 by Luigi Emanuele Pinto y Mendoza, and subsequently underwent various renovations by Ferdinando Sanfelice. Upon the death of the second Prince of Ischitella in 1767, the palace passed to his son Pasquale Emanuele and then to his grandson Francesco Emanuele. During the 19th century, the façade on the Riviera was raised, and the interior garden disappeared.
