Polia

POLIA

Polia rises on the Tyrrhenian slope of Serre. For some the place name derives from polis, for other the oring of the name derives from Greek Polieno who arrived in the current suburb Trecroci, he decided to live here and he put the place name. In 1783 an earthquake destroyed Casale of Filadelfia and in the course of time it had built in four suburbs: Cellia, Menniti, Poliolo, Trecroci that together to the districts Lia, Faldella and Piano Bosco, formed the built up area Bosco Montagna (Mountain Forest). In the district Camarda there is a source of oligomineral water.
