Forno Pasticceria Parrucci Piergentili: what to see nearby

The main town, Sant'Angelo in Pontano, stands on a hilltop at 473 meters between the valley of the Ete Morto and that of the Tenna. The name combines Saint Michael the Archangel (San Michele Arcangelo), dear to the Lombards and shown on the coat of arms, with the gastaldato pontano, the administrative district the town belonged to. Around the mid-11th century the walls were built, which still partly give it the look of a castle.

Outside the walls is the Castello di San Filippo, a fortified tower house from the 13th century, altered over time. The patron saint is Saint Nicholas (San Nicola): a monument, the church of the same name and the Fontanelle, the place of prayer near the river Salino, are dedicated to him.
