The traditional 10th-century Castle di Sismano outside of Rome has quite an illustrious history of owners: it was donated by Emperor Otto in 962 AD, and passed on to the family of the Prince Corsini (two of whom ) until it hit the market this week. That's over 1,000 years of royal inhabitants.

The estate for sale is comprised of an 18,000-square-foot castle that includes a functioning (and well-reviewed) bed-and-breakfast, plus parts of the adjoining medieval village and a complex of residential buildings and gardens. It's all situated on a total of 2,100 acres of agricultural land - forests, pastures, and even olive groves.

It's listed with Jeffrey Feuer and Angelica Mera Schaefer of Douglas Elliman.
