      S. Angelo a Palombara seems, more than a sacred place, a solitary and massive fortress.
      News of the locality and of the Abbey can be found in documents of less than a thousand.
      The Diploma of Landolfo, Archbishop of Benevento, which contains the deed of reconstruction or foundation of the Diocese of Sant'Agata dei Goti, dated 14 December 970, speaks of the summit of the mountain which is called Palombara, as the border of the new Diocese.
      Even if there is no express mention of the church, the reference to the territory suggests that there must have existed something that in the future could give rise to conflicts of jurisdiction.
      The first act explicitly mentioning S. Angelo a Palombara is the diploma of Henry II dated 6 March 1022; those of Corrado follow, 8 June 1038;
      William, 1070; Pope Gregory VII, December 3, 1084; Pope Anacletus, 1130 and 1139.
      These are deeds in which the possession and dependency of numerous abbeys with the respective appurtenances and endowments as well as other real rights over people and things is recognized to the Monastery of Santa Sofia of Benevento.

        S. Angelo a Palombara, seen from the Caudina valley, and more particularly in the stretch between the locality (Botteghino) of San Felice Cancello and Arienzo, seems, more than a sacred place, a solitary and massive fortress, leaning forward on the side of the mountain , almost tending to watch over the industrious and fruitful plain.
        Nor does it lose this characteristic when you see it along the hills that the railway to Benevento touches to go up to Arpaia or when you run along the Appia, after Santa Maria a Vico.
