Sulmona lies 400 m above sea level at the head of a valley in the centre of
Abruzzo, delimited by the highest mountains in the range of the Apennines.
Sulmona is a town noted for its art and architecture, in the fertile and
picturesque Valle Peligna, almost at the foot of Monte Morrone, where Pietro da
Morrone was a hermit before he became Pope Celestine V. Sulmona, the birthplace
in 48 BC of the great poet Ovid, still conserves a remarkably intact heritage of
monuments and works of art that is today enhanced by cultural events, tourist
amenities and sports facilities of the highest standards, making the town a
particularly pleasant and interesting destination for holidays.
In the narrow streets, avenues and tree-lined squares stand both modest and
splendid houses, which present a display of the finest architecture adorned with
carved windows, sculptural fragments, traces of fresco work.
Each palazzo and church, the quiet cloisters and courtyards which almost remain
hidden to the indiscrete glances of the hasty passers-by house suggestive
treasures, stairways and balconies, heraldic coats of arms and capitals,
sculptured arcades and wells; signs of an ilustrious past, fragments of life
from the past, evidence of a cultured civilization, all of which gives value and
consistency to this town's lifestyle.
Sulmona is made even more charming by the large choice of accommodation
facilities on offer.
