Borgorose

Few towns in Lazio have a history as closely tied to the 1915 Avezzano earthquake as Borgorose. The disaster devastated the settlement then known as Borgocollefegato, and reconstruction gave the modern centre much of its present form. Borgorose lies in the Salto Valley, in Lazio's Cicolano area, amid wooded Apennine slopes and scattered hamlets. Nearby Lago del Salto is a reservoir formed by damming the Salto River, adding a broad expanse of water to this inland mountain setting. The municipality also stands close to the Abruzzo border, in a part of central Italy shaped by valleys and routes through the Apennines.
