Because of its strategic position, on the border between the territories of the Este Dynasty, the Pico family, the Gonzagas, and the Pios, the castle became a genuine fortress during the 13th century when it began to serve as a key prize in the expansionist dreams of these powerful families. After a prosperous period under the dominion of the Pios, Novi fell under Este rule in 1530 and remained such until the end of the 18th century. With the unification of Italy, Novi was assigned to the district of Mirandola and then, in 1895, to Modena. Like other towns in this area, Novi was also seriously affected by the May 2012 earthquake.
