The late 16th-century property of Domenico Ottone passed through several owners before coming into the possession of the Guercia family; it was purchased in 1857 by the Figlie della Carità, and transformed by architect Luigi d’Angelo into the new Casa Centrale with the Immaculata Concezione church, built on the site of the 17th-century gardens. The original building was reserved as a residence for the missionaries responsible for the spiritual formation of the nuns. In 1881, the adjacent property of Luigi Caracciolo, Duke of San Teodoro and S. Arpino - which had previously belonged to the Dukes of Parete - was also annexed to the religious complex.
