La Chiesa e Rocca di San Leucio a Veroli (Fr). Le mura poligonali, che ancora oggi possiamo vedere a tratti, sono testimonianza dell’antica origine della cittadina Ernica che, come altri centri, si formò sulla parte più alta della zona, cioè dove più facilmente si poteva affrontare una difesa. Su questa rocca, un tempo chiamata civitas erecta, nel medioevo vennero rafforzate le strutture preesistenti e si crearono nuove possenti fortificazioni. Ricordiamo la resistenza sanguinosa che i verolani opposero agli assalti di Ladislao d’Angiò-Durazzo presso la torre, poi denominata “Torre della lotta”.
Oggi, di tanta passata grandezza, resta nel luogo la piccola Chiesa di San Leucio fondata nel 1079 al tempo di Gregorio VII, intorno alla quale gravitò l’omonimo nucleo fortificato.
