Our Company, NOLAE, was born in the lands of river Clanio, a river that has given to its basin a very favourable profile. It is not by chance that the ancients called this region Campania Felix. On the banks of this river, an ancient civilization was born who gave to the river’s course the spell of a millennial culture’s fascination.
Our name, NOLAE, explicitly refers to the land in which the company was born. The town is Cimitile where, during the III cent. a.C.m in honour of the patron St. Felice in Pincis, the Roman Senator Ponzio Anicio Paolino (afterwards called San Paolino, patron Saint of Nola) built the first bell tower of Christianity where the PRIMA NOLAE i.e., the first bell resounded.
The paleo-Christian basilicas of Cimitile became, during the paleo-Christian age, one of the most important destinations and it is, still, visited by many Christians and tourists. It constitutes a very evocative scenery for international cultural events. |
