Convento di Montefiolo, Medieval convent in Casperia, Italy.
The Montefiolo Convent stands at an altitude of 400 meters, accessible through a winding road stretching approximately two kilometers from Casperia.
The convent, established in 1558 through Ostilio Savelli's concession, initially served as a residence for Capuchin friars and maintained a novitiate by 1573.
The church interior contains frescoes created by the Torresani brothers and various canvases depicting saints from the Capuchin period.
The structure now functions as a residence for Spanish Augustinian nuns and remains visible from the Casperia belvedere viewing point.
The name Montefiolo originates from 'mons filiorum Ugonis comitis', referencing the hill's medieval ownership by Count Ugone's descendants.
