Sant'Elpidio a Mare, Medieval commune in Province of Fermo, Italy.
Located on a ridge of the Marche Apennine at 251 meters elevation, Sant'Elpidio a Mare extends between the river valleys of Tenna and Ete Morto.
The area contained the Roman city of Cluana until its destruction by Visigoths in the 5th century, leading to establishment of a Benedictine Abbey in 887.
The Imperial Abbey of Santa Croce al Chienti represents Romanesque architecture and underwent major expansions during the 10th to 12th centuries.
The town maintains three kilometers of medieval walls with three preserved gates from the original seven that once surrounded the settlement.
The Torre Gerosolimitana, constructed by Knights Hospitaller in the 16th century, stands as a military architectural monument within the town center.
