The town is situated at 154 m. above sea level on an alluvial terrace near the con Fluence of the Castellano and Tronto rivers, about 30 km. from the Adriatic coast.
It was founded by the Piceni and conquered by the Romans in 286 BC. However, a rebellion broke out in 91 BC. at the time of the Social Wars, but was quelled two years later.
After the fall of the Roman Empire, Ascoli Piceno was ruled by the Lombards until 774, when the Franks gave it to the Church.

From the flat valley, where the administrative centre of Marsia (whose name eventually derives from the marsi people) developed, one can reach the heights of a hill and mountain setting.
Roccafluvione has two valuable Romanesque churches as evident signs of the civilization brought by the Benedictine monks, to whom the history of the place is strictly linked.
