Vernio is a ''comune'' (municipality) in the Province of Prato in the Italian region Tuscany, located about northwest of Florence and about north of Prato, with a population of 6.118. ==History== Vernio's name derives from that of an ancient Roman winter camp (''castra hiberna'') located here. A Roman bridge existed in the area, but was destroyed during World War II. In the 12th century it went from the Carolingians to the counts Alberti from Prato, who lived here after 1107. In the 13th century it went to the Bardi family, as the seat of a county which remained independent until 1798, when it was abolished by Napoleon. After the Congress of Vienna it was annexed to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. ==Geography== Vernio borders the following municipalities: Barberino di Mugello, Camugnano, Cantagallo, Castiglione dei Pepoli. The municipality of Vernio is a union of three villages: *San Quirico (with the town hall) *Mercatale with the Vernio-Cantagallo-Montepiano train station *Sant 'Ippolito (with a nice parish church) 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「Vernio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
