Frondarola is a village of about 600 people standing at an altitude of 1500 feet above sea level.  It is located about five miles from the provincial capital Teramo in the Abruzzo region of Italy.

Archeological evidence points to the existence of Frondarola in the pre-Roman era.  The village is located at the watershed of the Tordino and Vomano valleys.  Looking out from Frondarola one can see the peaks of the Gran Sasso and the Monti della Laga mountains, as well as the hills of the Pescara and Ascoli Piceno areas of Abruzzo.

Its dominant position gives Frondarola visibility and a distinctive ambiance characteristic of the Aprutino hill country in Abruzzo.   The patron saint of Frondarola is SS Salvatore (Our Saviour).  In the main piazza of Frondarola can be found a church dedicated to Madonna delle Grazie (Mother of Grace).   

About three kilometers away is the small village of Valle San Giovanni.
