The town of Mentana developed starting from the 8th century following the abandonment of the ancient Nomentum, which had had a fair expansion as a wine production center and due to the presence of a spa (Aquae Labanae, in present-day locality of Grotta Marozza). Remembered in 408 as an episcopal seat, to which the diocese of Cures (near Fara in Sabina) was added in 593, in 741 it underwent a brief occupation by the Longobards and the town moved to a greater distance from the Via Nomentana, in a better position defensible. On November 23 of the year 800 it was the site of the meeting between Charlemagne and Pope Leo III. The castle of Nomentum was a possession of the important Roman family of the Crescenzi between the 10th and 11th centuries. In 1058 the city was destroyed by the Normans (Kingdom of Sicily) and the town shrank drastically, while the castle passed to the Capocci family; it was later included among the papal possessions and was entrusted to the Benedictine monks of San Paolo Outside the Walls. In the second half of the fourteenth century it was owned by the Orsini family and in 1484 it suffered serious damage from an earthquake. It then passed in 1594 to the prince of Venafro, Michele Peretti, and in 1655 it was handed over to prince Marcantonio Borghese who became marquis. The "windy 18th" of 1798[5] Mentana is admitted into the Napoleonic Roman Republic. On 3 November 1867 it was the scene of the Battle of Mentana, at the conclusion of the Risorgimento Campaign of the Agro Romano for the liberation of Rome desired by Giuseppe Garibaldi with the cry of "Rome or Death!" and began in September in the Viterbo area. Garibaldi's volunteers from 216 Italian municipalities and from nations such as Hungary and Russia were defeated by the Pontificals and the French who rushed to the defense of Pius IX while they were moving from Monterotondo to Tivoli on 3 November 1867. source :https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mentana
