Vitelleschi is a noble Italian family from Foligno and Corneto.
They are descended from the powerful family of Vitelli from Città di Castello, Umbria.
[1] The family established itself in Rome in the sixteenth century.
In 1600, Virginia Vitelleschi married Girolamo Nobili di Rieti, giving rise to the family of Nobili-Vitelleschi.
