Potenza Picena

 
 

Potenza Picena has a very old history and the first document of its existence dates back to the 947 A.D.- The town centre dates back to the early Middle Ages. During the Renaissance in Potenza Picena took place some meetings of the Carbonari, and its citizens took part in the marchigiano-romagnoli risings in 1817. Porto Potenza, instead, developed more recently, thanks to the construction of the railway.
