Il castello Orsini-Odescalchi di Bracciano, situato a circa 40 km da Roma, rappresenta un interessante esempio di palazzo-fortezza, di particolare qualità architettonica ed artistica. Fondato su un nucleo medievale ed ampliato nella seconda metà del XV secolo esso, nonostante i numerosi interventi che vi sono stati realizzati nel corso dei secoli, conserva i caratteri della sua fase rinascimentale e parte delle finiture dello stesso periodo. Il manufatto, visitabile virtualmente utilizzando l’applicazione Google Arts & Culture, è attualmente oggetto di studio da parte dell’Università Sapienza insieme al Comune di Bracciano.
