History & geography

History

Ferentillo has origins dating back to the 8th century, closely linked to the Abbey of San Pietro in Valle. Its foundation is associated with the Lombard duke Faroald II. Faroald II built the church and monastery and, after being deposed by his son Transamund around 724, retired there, where he lived as a monk for eight years before dying and being buried on the site. Although various Latin inscriptions from the Roman period were found in the area, they do not indicate a direct continuity of settlement. No remains of an ancient or Roman structure were identified at the site of the abbey. In 1847 Pope Pius IX granted the territory to the French family, conferring upon them the princely title. In 1860, following Italian unification, Ferentillo became a municipality. In the mid-19th century Ferentillo had a population of 2,366 inhabitants, of whom 2,039 lived in the main settlements and 327 in the countryside.
