Atessa is in the province of Chieti, Abruzzo, south-eastern Italy. It is 435 m above sea level.
Atessa Town is 20 km from the Adriatic coast and sandy beaches.
The population of Atessa has over 10,000 inhabitants, so there are plenty of services, shops,
cafes, bars and restaurants available.
The city preserves the historical center in 17th-century, late Renaissance style,
with few remains of the ancient medieval walls.
Atessa boasts a great historical and artistic heritage. Its fame is linked to the legend about a dragon killed
by San Leucio di Alessandria,
the patron saint of the city, whose rib is preserved in the Cathedral of San Leucio,
in a predominant position in the village.
The town hosts the Sassu Museum, a beautiful art gallery dedicated to the painter Aligi Sassu,
at the Palazzo Ferri in Corso Vittorio Emanuele.
During the summer, various events are held in Atessa, including the International Folklore Festival
and the jazz music festival in July.
