Pesche borders the following municipalities: Carpinone, Isernia, Miranda, Sessano del Molise.
History.
Classical Age.
The history of the land where Pesche was born is tied to the history of Isernia (its capitol). The renaissance of the city under the rule of Nero and Trajan along with the presence of a natural hot spring, gave way to the birth to the thermal baths and the “Santuario di Santa Maria del Bagno”.
Medieval times.
With the end of imperial authority in the western Italy and the fall of big cities, along with the arrival of new populations that governed the Italian peninsula (Eruli, Goti, Longobardi), a sudden migration away from the big cities occurred. It is exactly during this time that, close to the thermal baths, a small group of people will move to the base of Monte San Marco around the year 1000. A Benedictine monastery was already present here which was most likely built on a small Sunni fortress which was then used as a lookout post. The population grew bigger and they started settling in the town by building several important structures. The presence of the Benedictine monks is very important to the town of Pesche, as they began building places of worship and cultivated a pious lifestyle, so much so that the citizens of Pesche were known as “monastic”. The most important religious structures that were built were the church of Sant’Angelo, the Santa Maria dell’ospedale (where they also managed a hospice) and the convent of Santa Croce. It is interesting to note how the church of Sant’Angelo (the parochial church at the time) was not built inside the walls of the city but further up on the hills. During this time the center and the houses of its inhabitants were also being built further up the valley and outside of the city walls. The political situation was also changing and Pesche became an important possession of the Monastery of Montecassino, so much so that at the time it also had papal protection.
Modern times.
In 1956 a violent earthquake destroyed the majority of the town, forcing the monks who stayed to return to Montecassino. During that time there was also a plague, perhaps a contagious flu, that delayed the speed of reconstruction. In 1593 a church was built that was dedicated to San Benedetto and Santa Scolastica, on which the church that stands there today was erected as the latter was also severely damaged due to another earthquake in the 18th century.
The 1900s.
During WWI the citizens of Pesche also went out to fight, and a statue in their honor was built in April 1920, the first in all of Molise. During that time the biggest influence on the town was religion and the church led by the Archpriest don Zeffirino Petrecca, who fought to maintain things as they were during his time and kept to the origins and traditions of the town.
In the 1950s several trees were planted in the hills, which today make up the Pine forest, which functions as a fortress for the unstable stones around the town that are sedimentary and are on a clayish terrain.
From the ’80s there is an expansion of the town in the lower part, where people have started to live, abandoning the historical center.
Monuments.
Parochial Church of Madonna del Rosario.
The Parochial church which still stands today was built on top of the ruins of previous religious ruins dating back to the 15th century and brought to its modern form by the Archpriest Silvestro Biondi between 1727 and 1759. The renovations of the church cost 4645 ducats and 864 for the church bells. From 1758 to 1761 the outdoor steps to the church were built. In 1760 the central nave which, is 22 meters long, 8 wide and 12 high.

The origin of the city is not clear: by the etymology of the name, it's probably datable during the Roman Empire. To endorse this hypothesis there are different elements: the presence of centuriations and the discovery, in the Middle Ages, of a Roman marble slab, now kept in the Archaeological Museum of Milan.
The oldest documents so far discovered dates back to the 10th century. Arcore, in the Middle Ages, is under the control of the "Pieve of Vimercate", and is historically documented the presence of two monasteries, la Casa delle Umiliate in Sant'Apollinare and the Benedictine monastery of Saint Martin of Tours.

After the Italian unification (1861), through the construction of the 2 Arcore's railway stations (the first in front at Villa Borromeo-D'Adda, and the second - of a different railway line - located in "Ca' Bianca-Buttafava") and the establishment of numerous industries (like Gilera), the city has gradually expanded up to become, today, one of the most active and largest city in Brianza.

Adelfia

Adelfia (meaning "brothers", in Greek; Barese: ) is a town and "comune" in the Metropolitan City of Bari, Apulia, southern Italy. The town is a combination of two smaller towns, being Montrone and Canneto.
History.
The urban center is constituted by two former villages (Canneto and Montrone) that were separated for a long time. Canneto was founded by the Normans of Robert Guiscard between 1080 and 1090, on the place of an ancient center (probably to be identified with "Celiae"), documented from ceramics and more recent graves from the 4th century. Montrone was founded in 980 by Greek refugees. Both had been subdued to varied feudal lords until 1806 when feudalism was abolished in the Kingdom of Two Sicilies. The two centers were united in 1927 under the artificial name of Adelfia, from the Greek term "adelphòs", meaning brotherhood.
Between the 19th and the 20th century, they suffered a considerable emigration towards the United States. The city life is today mainly connected to that of the nearby Bari.
Adelfia has a strong Christian Catholic tradition, therefore the Adelfiesi (citizens of Adelfia) still celebrate in different moments of the year the two Saint Patrons: San Trifone (in Montrone area) and San Vittoriano (in Canneto area). The local fair, the Mass, and fireworks competition typical of these festivities bring together the citizens with thousands of pilgrims coming from all over the world. The celebrations happen respectively in November and July each year.


Stapar

Stapar () is a village in Serbia. It is situated in the Sombor municipality, in the West Bačka District, Vojvodina province. The village has a Serb ethnic majority and its population numbering 3,720 people (2002 census).
History.
First large colonization of Germans into Bačka started in 1748. Inhabitants of the villages of Bokčenovići (or Bokčenovac) and Vranješevo, which were located near the town of Apatin, opposed the colonization plans of the Austrian government so they organized themselves under the leadership of Tanasko Lazić, a participant in the War of the Austrian Succession. They began attacking the ships on the Danube, especially Hungarian ones which were transporting German settlers. Called the "Pirates of the Danube", the villagers were ransacking and looting the ships and settlers on such a scale, that it was noted how "not one ship could sail down the Danube and not to be attacked". After several incidents ended with the killing of the attacked colonists, the imperial court in Vienna decided to put an end on piracy.
Following the order of Austrian empress Maria Theresa, they were evicted from their settlements and originally resettled in the puszta of Prigrevica-Sentivan. In 1752 they were settled on the location of modern Stapar. In time, their original villages, Bokčenovići and Vranješevo, ceased to exist. The population was resettled only by the third order. Due to his war reputation, Lazić gained the audience of the Empress twice and was successful in appealing orders. After pressure from the Hungarians, whose shipping on the Danube was suffering economic losses due to these attacks and their plans for establishment of Apatin as a port on the Danube with a predominantly German population, no further appeals were granted. Eleven years later, 73 families from Prigrevica settled in Stapar as well.
Name.
Local myth states that the original name of the village was Stopar, because there were hundred couples of families (Serbian "sto pari"), which originally settled in the village.
Characteristics.
The village has a Serbian Orthodox church dedicated to the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Its iconostasis was painted by Jakov Orfelin in the late 18th century. The church was declared a cultural monument and placed under the state protection.
Economy.
Stapar is known for its weaving craft colony which makes famous rugs, or "kilims". The colony is regularly visited by the ambassadors and foreign dignitaries. The Government of the Republic of Serbia, the Government of Vojvodina and the National Assembly of Serbia included Stapar "kilims" into their gift list protocols, as they are considered the "most autochthonous "kilims" of the northern Serbia". One was given to the Charles, Prince of Wales. There is a permanent exhibition of rugs with the oldest exhibits being over a century old. The colony organized an "Ethno-net" which gathers female weavers from all over the rural areas of Serbia, which are then perfecting their skills in weaving, embroidery, goldwork, etc.
The rug making originated in the 18th century. The Stapar "kilims" in the late 19th and early 20th century were transported and sold throughout Austro-Hungary, including Vienna and Budapest. They are woven in basic white or beige, occasionally in green color. The rugs were a required part of the dowry. They were mostly used as bed covers and showed the status and wealth of the family. The rug weaving originated and developed as the home craft and in the 19th century grew into the most representative section of the textile craft and home industry in Vojvodina.
Unlike the more famous Pirot carpet from south Serbia, the domineering motifs on the Stapar carpets ("Staparac") are roses, they are vowed on the horizontal loom and have no fringes. They are made from the mix of wool and hemp. In the late 20th century, the craft started to die out, but was rejuvenated in 2014.

Governor of the Häme Province Reinhold von Ammondt travelled to the derelict village on the day after the fire, and with the help of the taxman of the "hundred" of Hollola, K. Palmgren, took upon the planning of land acquisitions for the purpose of establishing a market town.

Cervinara is a town and "comune" in the province of Avellino, Campania, Italy.

The name appears for the first time in 837 AD document, describing the donation of "castrum quod dicitur in Cerbinaria Caudetanis" to Sicard, Prince of Benevento, by the monks of San Vincenzo al Volturno. The village probably formed between the 9th and 10th centuries AD, when populations concentrated from the countryside around the fortified castle.
Cervinara was held by several feudal families, including the Filangieri, the Carafa, the Caracciolo and the Sant'Eramo. Until the early 19th century, it saw a distinctive agricultural development, mainly due to the particularly fertile soil.
During the Italian unification, the Cervinaresi contributed to the liberal movements of 1820 and 1848, when the conspirators decided to start from Cervinara to march on Naples and establish a Republic. However, the revolutionary ferment never managed to involve the majority of the population, and on 29/30 November 1860, Cervinara sided with the Bourbons against the Italian troops which had occupied the Kingdom of Two Sicilies.
In the 19th century, during the Brigandage in the Two Sicilies, the bands of Cipriano and Giona La Gala chose as a refuge the mountains above the village to fight against the Italian troops.
Main sights.
The Cervinarese artistic heritage include the Lombard medieval tower, now partially demolished, the Abbey of San Gennaro, built around 1100 and now dedicated to the Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows, and the Palace Marchesale, dating from the late 16th century.

History.
Fresvik was an isolated valley community until 1976. People could only access the village by boat on the Sognefjorden. In 1976, a road from Feios to Fresvik was completed, marking the first time ever that there was a road connection to the village. Historically, Fresvik had been a part of Leikanger Municipality since the main part of Leikanger is located directly north (across the fjord). After the road was completed to Fresvik from Feios and westward into Vik Municipality, discussions began about municipal borders since Fresvik now was more easily connected to Vik rather than a boat ride across the huge Sognefjorden. As of 1 January 1992, Fresvik and its surroundings (all of Leikanger that was south of the fjord and west of the Aurlandsfjorden) were transferred to Vik Municipality.
Name.
The village (and parish) is named after the old "Fresvik" farm () since the Fresvik Church was built there. The first element is the genitive of the name of the god Freyr and the last element is "vík" which means "inlet" or "bay".
