The history of the town's origins are fairly recent, dating from the Middle Ages.


During the 14th century, the territory fell under the domination of the Calepio family, who took possession of most of the valley.

In those years the whole province of Bergamo was devastated by the fratricidal conflict between the [[Guelph]] and [[Ghibelline]]. There was a considerable immigration of groups of people taking refuge in these remote and quiet areas. But soon fighting broke out here, so that a castle was built to protect the inhabitants from the incursions of the villagers. Many were the battles, including the distinguished Giovanni Fermo of the Alessandrini, who had many victories against the Ghibellines.


In 1668, the territory of Adrara was divided into two different entities: Adrara San Rocco and Adrara San Martino. Lingering disputes took a century to resolve. The division was formalized in 1754, ending with the awarding of five ninths of the land to the community of San Rocco and the remaining four ninths to San Martino.
During the fourteenth century, the territory fell under the domination of the [[Calepio]] family, who took possession of most of the valley. The following century saw the arrival of the [[Venetian Republic]] that put a definitive end to the factional struggles. It was a period of calm, and Adrara, experienced peace and saw the flourishing economic activities, with a consequent increase in population.
