History

The first traces of human presence in the southern Campanian plain date from the 9th–6th centuries BC, including a necropolis with 1400 sepultures, attributed to the Sarrastri tribe. The territory was invaded by the Samnites in 421 BC.

The earliest mention of San Valentino (as Balentino) is from an 868 AD document, preserved in the Trinità della Cava abbey. Its territory was held by the Del Balzo and Capece Minutolo families until the abolition of feudalism in 1806. It assumed the current denomination after the unification of Italy, in 1861.
