Montappone | Accommodation details

Historical Notes
Since ancient times it was dominated by the very powerful family of the Brunforte nobles and always found itself in the influential circle of the town of Fermo.  At the beginning of the XIV century the castle of Montappone was destroyed by Gentile da Mogliano and rebuilt in 1371 by the Montapponesi population.  When the Regno d’Italia (Kingdom of Italy) was founded, the municipalities of Massa Fermana and Monte Vidon Corrado joined up with that of Montappone.  When the pontificial state was reinstated Montappone became the seat of the governor of the district, transferred first to Falerone and then to Montegiorgio.  In 1827 it had a Podestà (Chief Magistrate) with jurisdiction also in Massa Fermana.
