Gualdo in the province of Macerata is situated at 652 metres (2,139 ft) above sea level with panoramic views of the Sibillini Mountains.

It is between the Salino and Tenonacola Rivers, where the first inhabitants fled in the fourth century from the barbarians invasions.

The medieval castle of Gualdo belongs to the Bonifazi of Monte San Martino then to the Brunforte.

The parish church of San Savino was built with a Greek cross layout and a central dome.

Adjacent to the parish church is the centre for Romolo Muri (1870–1944), dedicated to the founder of the Christian Democratic Party.
