Travel Guide Castel Del Monte

In the heart of the Gran Sasso National Park and the Laga Mountains, this beautiful mountain village at 1,400 meters above sea level offers a beautiful view over the plain towards L'Aquila. The old village is dominated by the church of Madonna del Suffragio, with its high bell tower. A beautiful avenue of fir trees around the public garden, enchanting viewpoints, beautiful stones, especially behind the San Rocco gate where the houses are older, form the most picturesque area of this village. A museum tour divided into several stages (the Museo civico etnografico) allows you to discover the pastoral life and ancestral traditions of Castel del Monte.
