It is located in the middle of the valley of the [[Chienti]]. ==History== [[~~Image~~File:Sarcophagus.jpg\|left\|thumb\|Roman sarcophagus, in [[San Catervo, Tolentino\|San Catervo]]]]▼ Signs of the first inhabitants of this favorable and fertile coastal zone, between the mountains and the [[Adriatic Sea\|Adriatic]], date to the ~~lower~~ [[Lower Paleolithic]]. Numerous tombs, from the 8th to the 4th centuries BCE, attest to the presence of the culture of the [[Piceni]] ~~culture~~ at the site of today's city, Roman ''Tolentinum'', linked to Rome by the [[via Flaminia]]. Tolentinum was the seat of the [[diocese of Tolentino]] from the late 6th century, under the patronage of the local Saint Catervo. The urban commune is attested from 1099, assuming its mature communal form between 1170 and 1190, settling its boundaries through friction with neighboring communes like S. Severino and Camerino. From the end of the 14th century, the commune passed into the hands of the da Varano family and then the [[Sforza]], before becoming part of the [[Papal States]] until the arrival of [[Napoleon]]. The [[Treaty of Tolentino]] between ~~Napoleon~~Bonaparte and [[Pope Pius VI]] was signed in the city on 19 February 1797: this imposed territorial and economic strictures on the Papacy.<ref name="EB1911">{{Cite EB1911\|wstitle=Tolentino\|volume=26\|page=1052}}</ref> In 1815, at the [[battle of Tolentino]], [[Joachim Murat]] was decisively defeated by [[Frederick Bianchi, Duke of Casalanza\|Frederick Bianchi]] at the head of Austrian forces, resulting in his abdication. Tolentino returned to papal control until [[Italian unification]] in 1861. In the late 19th century industrial development decisively linked Tolentino economically to the rest of Italy. ==Geography== The municipality borders with [[Belforte del Chienti]], [[Camporotondo di Fiastrone]], [[Colmurano]], [[Corridonia]], [[Macerata]], [[Petriolo]], [[Pollenza]], [[San Ginesio]], [[San Severino Marche]], [[Serrapetrona]], [[Treia]] and [[Urbisaglia]].<ref>{{OSM\|r\|42350\|Tolentino}}</ref> ===''Frazioni''=== ▲~~\| frazioni~~ Tolentino counts the hamlets (''[[Frazione\|frazioni]]'') =of Abbadia di Fiastra, Acquasalata, Ancaiano, Asinina, Bura, Calcavenaccio, Casa di Cristo, Casone, Cisterna, Collina, Colmaggiore, Divina Pastora, Fontajello, Fontebigoncio, Grazie, Maestà, Massaccio, Pace, Parruccia, Paterno, Pianarucci, Pianciano, Pianibianchi, Portanova, Rambona, Rancia, Regnano, Ributino, Riolante, Rofanello, Rosciano, Rotondo, S.Sant'Andrea, S.Sant'Angelo, S.San Bartolomeo, S.Santa Croce, S.San Diego, S.San Giovanni, S.San Giuseppe, S.Santa Lucia, S.San Martino, S.San Rocco, Salcito, ~~SS.~~Santissimo Redentore, Troiano, Vaglie, and Vicigliano. ==Economy== Tolentino is home to [[Arena (swimwear)\|Arena]], the swimwear brand, and [[Poltrona Frau]], the noted designer of leather furniture and automotive interiors — as well as the Poltrona Frau Museum, designed by Italian architect [[Michele De Lucchi]], to display furniture products. ==Main sights== [[Basilica di San Nicola a Tolentino\|San Nicola]] Basilica Church ~~{{Expand section\|date=June 2008}}~~ [[Castello della Rancia]] ▲[[Image:Sarcophagus.jpg\|left\|thumb\|Roman sarcophagus, San Catervo, Tolentino]] [[Chiaravalle Abbey, Fiastra\|Chiaravalle Abbey]] [[Sacro Cuore di Gesù, Tolentino\|Sacro Cuore di Gesù]] Church [[San Catervo, Tolentino\|San Catervo]] Church [[San Francesco, Tolentino\|San Francesco]] Church [[Santa Maria della Tempesta, Tolentino\|Santa Maria della Tempesta]] Church [[Santissimo Crocifisso, Tolentino\|Santissimo Crocifisso]] Church [[Teatro Nicola Vaccaj]] ==Notable people== The most famous ''Tolentinati'' are ~~the saint~~ [[St Nicholas of Tolentino]] (c. ~~1246—1305~~ 1246–1305) and the humanist [[Francesco Filelfo]] (1398–1481).
