Description
Arpino is high in the hills between Rome and Naples. This lovely town spreads out across a ridge near the Lazio-Abruzzo border, taking in cultural aspects from both regions. It has interesting historical sights, abiding traditions, pretty piazzas, ancient ruins, a fair share of churches, and a lively atmosphere.
The enchanting town is a well-kept secret but is a place that will provide a genuine Italian town experience for visitors. It is lived in and beloved by its residents!
Arpino has ancient roots dating back to the seventh century BC. It was taken over by the Romans and named Arpinium. It went through periods of prosperity and poverty, and was hotly contended between Rome and Benevento for domination in the Middle Ages due to its strategic position. Arpino was the birthplace of the Roman philosopher and orator, Cicero.
