Remains of thermal buildings dating back to the 2nd century AD found in the Piana del Ceraso suggest that the area was already populated in Roman times.<\/p>

On a hill behind the current village of Guardea, in one of the most scenic locations of Amerino, the ruins of the Castle of Guardea Vecchia indicate the ancient location of the village.<\/p>

Erected by the Uffreduzzi counts in the 10th century, the castle passed to the Alviano family, who were already lords of the homonymous village. Here, the family collected taxes and tolls: the toponym Guardea “Guardigium”<\/em> (from the Germanic “warda”<\/em>), refers to the “tribute”<\/em> due from the subjects to the Lords of the place. It was in the sixteenth century, with Bartolomeo D’Alviano, that the village reached the height of its prestige.<\/p>

In the 17th century, the inhabitants moved further downstream, giving rise to the birth of the current center of Guardea, which from that moment became part of the Papal States until its annexation to the Kingdom of Italy in 1860.<\/p>

Towards the end of the 19th century, the administrator Farina became the owner of the castle. His daughter Lina, married to the American comedian Jimmy Savo, inherited it and together they lived there, establishing an Art Center<\/em> for a period. Among others, the Nobel Prize-winning author John Steinbeck was hosted there.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
