Bellona is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Caserta in the Italian region Campania, located about 35 kilometres (22 mi) north of Naples and about 14 kilometres (9 mi) northwest of Caserta.
Bellona borders the following municipalities: Camigliano, Capua, Pontelatone, Vitulazio.
The town takes its name from the Roman goddess Bellona, who had a temple devoted to her in the area.
When the Saracens destroyed the ancient Capua in 841, some of their inhabitants moved to the Palmobara hill (the modern Bellon's frazione of Triflisco) founding the town of Sicopoli.
[3] Italian President Oscar Luigi Scalfaro awarded the town the Golden Medal of Military Valour to reward the town's contribution to the Resistance in World War II.
