Frosolone

Frosolone is practically equidistant between the cities of Campobasso and Isernia. It was once in the province of Campobasso, but it is now part of Isernia, although we believe any family records would remain where they were originally recorded.

Frosolone was reconstructed after the earthquake of 1805 and the main appointment of the year is the 'Sagra dei Peperuoli e Baccalà' during May. That's dry salted cod. Visitors should also look out for the mysterious wind park or 'Centrale Eolica, as well as the knife works or 'Coltelleria'.

Frosolone is about 220km from Rome and approx 180 from Naples. Both destinations would offer fairly easy access to Molise, although perhaps the most direct route would be to fly to Pescara in Abruzzo, take the coast road to Termoli before heading inland towards Campobasso.

Anyone seeking information about local records or a local guide would do well to contact the Presidio Turistico at Isernia.
