History

After their invasion in 570, the Lombards consolidated control over the Duchy of Spoleto. Within this framework, Ponte became the seat of the gastaldato della Montagna, an important Lombard administrative district encompassing present-day Cerreto di Spoleto, Poggiodomo, Monteleone di Spoleto, Cascia, Norcia, Preci, part of Sellano, as well as Visso and Leonessa.[3]
