Casalattico is a ''comune'' (municipality) in the Province of Frosinone in the Italian region Lazio. The village is located about southeast of Rome and about east of Frosinone. It is home to a summer Irish festival celebrating the local families that moved to Ireland. The Melfa river, a left affluent of the Liri river, flows in the commune. The Roman writer Titus Pomponius Atticus had a villa in what is now the ''frazione'' of Montattico. Sights include the medieval Benedictine monastery of Sant'Angelo in Pesco Mascolino, and a Roman bridge above the Melfa. Other Roman remains are in the archaeological site of San Nazario. == Emigration to Ireland == In the late 19th and early 20th century a significant number of young people left Casalattico to work in Ireland, with many founding chip shops there. Up to 8,000 Irish-Italians have ancestors from Casalattico and nearby Picinisco Many of them also emigrated to England, Scotland, France, Belgium and the United States. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Casalattico」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
