History

The village was founded in 1150, as a military camp, that hosted the troops of Roger II of Sicily, and was named Castra Rogerii. Later, it was named Torre Superiore (i.e. "Upper Tower"), to distinguish it from Torre Inferiore ("Lower Tower", the current Torre Orsaia). In 1811 the village resumed the original name and became, until 1927, an autonomous municipality, when it merged in Torre Orsaia.[2]
