Veroli (Latin: "Verulae") is a town and commune in province of Frosinone, Lazio, Italy.

History

Veroli became a Roman municipium in 90 BCE. It became the seat of a bishopric in 743 CE, and was occupied by Spanish milices, allied to the Colonna family, in the 16th troops.

Main sights

It retains remains of its ancient polygonal enceinte, especially near the summit of the hill, later occupied by a medieval castle.

The Cathedral's treasury contains the breviary of St. Louis of Toulouse, and some interesting reliquaries, one in ivory with bas-reliefs, and two in the Gothic style, of silver gilt.

In the nearby is the important Gothic Abbey of Casamari.
