Rivisondoli, Mountain commune in L'Aquila, Italy
Rivisondoli extends across the flank of Monte Calvario at 1320 meters elevation, occupying a position on the plateau of Cinque Miglia in Abruzzo.
The first documentation of Rivisondoli dates to 724 AD through a diploma issued by Grimoald II, Duke of Benevento, marking its early medieval origins.
The Parish Church of San Nicola di Bari contains notable stained glass windows created by artist Giovanni Haynal during its reconstruction in the early 2000s.
The town connects to major cities through the Sulmona-Isernia railway and Autoroute A25, with regular bus services operating from Sulmona and Castel di Sangro.
Every January 5th, Rivisondoli transforms into a living nativity scene, presenting one of the largest outdoor religious performances in the region.
