Isola del Liri, with its waterfalls in the city center, is on the path of San Benedetto

Once crossed and surrounded by the river Liri, the city was called in the past "Insula Filiorum Petri", that is, the island of the Lords of the place, the sons of the Lombard gastaldo Pietro il Maggiore, which later became Isola di Sora and, from 22 May 1869, Isola del Liri. Since the 1800s it has long been an important center of the paper industry, an activity that has left many traces even in its urban fabric. Today Isola is engaged in an operation to recover its past. The ancient Béranger-Coste paper mill was later brought to light, later Lefebvre, which will become the seat of the "Museum of the Civilization of Paper and Telecommunications", where you can relive the centenary paper tradition of Isola del Liri. Attractiveness, which mobilizes visitors from all over the world, is the suggestive "Grande" waterfall: in the center of the town it takes a jump of about 30 m., Thus constituting a unique case in Italy. On the top of the place stands the medieval Boncompagni-Viscogliosi Castle, a national monument (14th-18th centuries). Remodeled several times, it preserves inside, in the Sala degli Stucchi, 18 high reliefs depicting the domains of the Boncompagni family as they were at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Among the churches we point out that of S. Lorenzo Martire, sec. XVII, which houses an altarpiece (16th century), frescoes and wooden statues from different periods and a large organ; the Church of S. Maria delle Forme in Gothic style, undergoing renovation; of S. Antonio which preserves an SS. Crucifix so dear to the islanders; of S. Maria dei Fiori with the bronze bells (1930-40) of the local foundry "Antonio Loffredo". Interesting are the remains of a watchtower on the San Sebastiano hill, and of the other so-called "di Cicerone" in loc. Carnello, in whose district, where Fibreno enters Liri, was the paternal villa of the great orator.
