    On December 18, 218 BC. an important battle of the Second Punic War took place here. To challenge the Roman troops of the consul Tiberius and the Carthaginian ones of Hannibal, strong of several elephants. For this reason, the statue that commemorates that battle is an elephant, erected in 2012.
