San Benedetto in Perillis is a town and comune in the province of L'Aquila, Abruzzo, central Italy.
In the High Middle Ages, a monastery was built here to serve the peasantry of L'Aquila.
Charles V of Spain later granted the lands around the town to one of the captains of his army.
Eventually, the Caracciolo family took control of the area, being replaced in the 18th century by the Celestine Fathers of L'Aquila.
The movie Ladyhawke (1985) was filmed in the monastery of San Benedetto.
