Villa Popolo

Villa Popolo is a small village in the province of Teramo, in the Abruzzo region of central Italy.

Historical records from the year 1267 make mention of this important parish church and interior and exterior engravings suggest that a renovation was completed the 1684.

They have been signed although it is not entirely clear if the names on the paintings refer to the master scenic artist or to an assistant.

Each year, during the first part of June, the "Sagra del Formaggio Fritto" (Festival of Fried Cheese) takes place.

Exhibitions feature the transhumance (migrations of sheep and shepherds from lowland areas of Abruzzo and leading to higher grazing lands in Apulia, Lazio, and other parts of southern Italy).
