Sant'Angelo del Pesco is situated in the Molise mountain side. The town is better known as Frantangelo and is often called mythical. It is a place to escape reality, where "anything is possible." Often you will find the young people of the town wandering the strade in the wee small hours of the morning singing such songs as, "Under My Umbrella." A show at any hour is what you will find in one of Italy's greatest treasures, Sant'Angelo del Pesco. Although the population may slowly be dwindling the town's inhabitants are so full of vibrancy that the characteristics of these wonderful people are enough to sufice the impossible.
