History Modern Ladispoli includes the site of the ancient ''Alsium'' at nearby Palo Laziale, the port of the Etruscan city of Cerveteri and later a Roman colony cited by Cicero. ''Alsium'' was destroyed in the 6th century AD, during the Gothic War, by the Ostrogoths led by Totila.

Modern Ladispoli was founded in 1888 by Ladislao Odescalchi, from whom it takes its name.
