S. Croce di Magliano is on a hilltop approximately 608 metres (1,995 ft) above sea level, just north of the Fortore river. In the Middle Ages the Roman settlements gave rise to "casali", or rural hamlets, and in the Hohenstaufen period (13th century) Santa Croce is recorded as a fiefdom of the Stipide family.[3] In 1266 it became a fiefdom of the Monastery of Sant'Eustachio.[4]

Among the local churches are Sant'Antonio da Padova and San Giacomo.

Santa Croce di Magliano borders the following municipalities: Bonefro, Castelnuovo della Daunia, Montelongo, Rotello, San Giuliano di Puglia, Torremaggiore.

gollark: It looks like a usable approach would be to just sandbox "webpages" to allow... basically just a subset of term access, all the random utility functions and libraries which are important, *maybe* HTTP (impose limits on requests - "CORS" type things, perhaps?), and a few things for user input and whatnot.
gollark: Cool, but make sure it's more secure than Firewolf...
gollark: Moooo!
