 La
storia della cittą
From palcolitican ages and ancient umbrian hamlet (Noukria), under its many reconstructions and foundings the preroman Umbrians called it Nocera which means "new building". In 266 b.C. it was conquered by Rome and successively, in 161 b.C., erected to a Roman municipality. Named "Nuceria Camellaria", it was an important station on the Flaminia road, for this reason it had a rapid und luxuriant development. Devastated by barbarian invasions, in particular by the Goths from Totila (552 a.C.), in the Vlth century it was subjected to the Dukedom of Spoleto, in the 850's it was erected to earldom by the emperor Lotario, which granted it in feud to one of the sons of the Duke from Spoleto. Involved in the fights between Guelfics and Ghibellines, in the XIIth century it belonged to Perugia and Gubbio and then again to Perugia in 1217. In 1239 it was destroyed by Federico IInd, it returns once more to Perugia in 1251. Passed to the Trinci from Foligno, in 1392 it was fortified and in 1439 it was definitively annexed to the State of the Church under Perugia's delegacy |
