Fumone: A medieval village in Italy's Ciociaria region
Fumone is a medieval village located in the Ciociaria region within the province of Frosinone, Italy. Situated on a volcanic rock at an altitude of approximately 800 meters, the town overlooks the Sacco and Cosa valleys.
The name “Fumone” is linked to its historical role as a strategic military observation point. During the early Middle Ages, guards used large signal fires to warn neighboring centers, such as Ferentino and Alatri, of approaching enemy armies.
