The castle in Crespi was built between 1893 and 1894. The castle was the manor house of the family and its style is typical of the Medieval architecture of the XII century. The architect was Ernesto Pirovano.<ref name=":3">{{Cite book|last=Cortesi|first=Luigi|title=Crespi d'Adda, villaggio ideale del lavoro|publisher=Grafica Monti s.n.c.- Bergamo|pages=88–94}}</ref>

The manor house was the summer residence of the family.<ref name=":3" />

At the end of 1960, the municipality of [[Capriate San Gervasio]] got the property of the building. From 1968 to 1981 it became the secondary school of the village and afterwards a professional institute. In 1977 the building was sold to some private buyers. All these different usages implied some important changes in the architectural structure and in the decorative styles.<ref name=":3" />

Today, the building has been declared real estate of historical interest.<ref name=":3" />
