Frosinone is a town and comune in Lazio, central Italy, the capital of the omnymous province[1]. It is located about 75 km south-east of Rome close to the Rome-Naples Autostrada A1. East of Frosinone lies an early gothic Cistercian cloister.
Frosinone is located on a hill overlooking the valley of Sacco River, and is surrounded by the Ernici and Lepini mountain ranges.
