Fermo listen (help·info) (ancient: Firmum Picenum) is a town and comune of the Marche, Italy, in the Province of Fermo.
Fermo is located on a hill, the Sabulo (elevation 319 m) with a fine view, on a branch from Porto San Giorgio on the Adriatic coast railway.
The great antiquity of the city is attested by the remains of its cyclopean walls.[citation needed] The ancient Firmum Picenum was founded as a Latin colony, consisting of 6000 men, in 264 BC, after the conquest of the Picentes, as the local headquarters of the Roman power, to which it remained faithful. It was originally governed by five quaestors. It was made a colony with full rights after the battle of Philippi, the 4th Legion being settled there. It lay at the junction of roads to Pausulae, Urbs Salvia, and Asculum, connected to the coast road by a short branch road from Castellum Firmanum (Porto S. Giorgio).
With the Pentapolis, in the 8th century it passed under the authority of the Holy See was thenceforth subject to the vicissitudes of the March of Ancona. In the 10th century it became the capital of the Marchia Firmana. Under the predecessors of Honorius III (1216–27) the bishops of city became prince-bishops, first with the secular rights of counts, and later as princes of Fermo.
