Gallese
Gallese is an Italian comune in the Province of Viterbo, from Viterbo.
It was taken by Duke Thrasimund II of Spoleto in 737 or 738, at which time it was essential to communications between Rome and Ravenna and had a large fortress.
Pope Marinus I was a native of Gallese, as was Pope Romanus, who was head of the Catholic Church in 897.
