The
name of Magliano Sabina probably derives from
the Latin words Praedium Manlianum or fundus
Manlianus, the names by which people used to refer
one of the estates of the Gens Manlia at the time of
the Romans. According to a paper, dating back to the
8th century and today preserved in Farfa, the
original nucleus of Magliano Sabina is to be
identified to the homonymous center that developed
till it became the present village.
Today
Magliano Sabina preserves a medieval appearance,
especially due to important and noble Palaces such
as “Palazzo Vescovile” and “Palazzo
Vannicelli” which is the seat of the mairie,
and where are preserved Roman relics and the statue
of the Virgin with the Infant, that really
worth a visit. In the neighborhood of Magliano
Sabina, there are other and important cultural
sights, for example the archeological village in
Foglia, whose necropolis really worth a visit,
and then the homomymous village of Foglia with its
Church in honour of our Lady of the Assumption and
its frescos, dating back to the 1600.
Not
very far from Magliano Sabina, the archeological
sites of Ocricolum, with the amphitheatre, the
Roman relics, and the Via Amerina, a very ancient
road, represents one of the most interesting and
exciting Etruscan relic of the neighborhood.
