geography

The old town of Marino lies on the edge of the caldera of an extinct volcano above Lake Alban . The municipality extends into the plain of the Campagna Romana . The districts of Castelluccia, Cava dei Selci, Due Santi, Frattocchie, Fontana Sala and Santa Maria delle Mole are located in the western part of the municipality along the Via Appia and are now the residential areas for most of the Marinesi. In 1974 Ciampino was spun off from Marino as an independent municipality. Since 1993 efforts have been made in the suburbs of Frattocchie and Santa Maria delle Mole to form an independent community under the name of Boville .

Bovillae was settled by the refugees from Alba Longa . It disappeared during the Migration Period.
Locus Ferentinus was a meeting place of the League of Latins .

After the conquest of Rome, Castrimoenium was founded. The aqueduct of the Aqua Tepula started from here. In 313 AD Constantine the Great donated the site to the cathedral of Albano . In the 10th century the place came under the name of Possessio Marinas in the possession of the Counts of Tusculum and later the Frangipane and finally in 1266 the Orsini . In 1419 the Colonna conquered Marino.

In 1870 the Papal State was dissolved and Marino was incorporated into the Kingdom of Italy .
