Minturno, Medieval commune in Province of Latina, Italy

Minturno rises 141 meters above sea level on the northwest bank of the Garigliano River, covering 42 square kilometers of southern Lazio territory.

The settlement transformed from ancient Minturnae, established in 296 BC as Castrum Minturnae, into a Roman city with temples, theaters, and thermal baths.

The local population maintains agricultural traditions through seasonal markets and regional fairs where farmers display products from the Lazio countryside.

The municipality sits 126 kilometers from Rome and 63 kilometers from Naples, with direct transportation connections making it accessible for regional exploration.

The Ferdinand Bridge, constructed in 1832, stands as Italy's first iron suspension bridge over the Garigliano River, demonstrating early industrial engineering.
