The village of Frosolone (province of Isernia) rises on a promontory surrounded by uneven gorges and pristine nature.
The historical centre is accessed through ancient arched gateways (Porta Santa Maria, Porta San Pietro, Porta Sant'Angelo) and characterised by the several small squares, such as Largo Vittoria, that open out amidst the alleyways and the main thoroughfares.
The numerous places of worship in the village include the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, which dates to the 13th century and was restored several times following damage from the earthquakes in 1456 and 1805. Built on a Latin cross, with three naves separated by columns, the central aisle has a vaulted ceiling and a segmented dome on the cross vault. The Church conserves significant 18th century oil paintings by Giacinto Diana over the two side altars. The Baroque facade and imposing bell tower dominate the square, the established meeting place in Frosolone. The Fountain dell'Immacolata in the residential centre is decorated with picturesque masks and flanked by side basins, a perfect example of the local use of limestone blocks.
