For example: Via per Alatri 1, Collepardo.

Collepardo, caves, the Pozzo d'Antullo and Trisulti charterhouse

Three places bring visitors to Collepardo: its caves, the Pozzo d'Antullo, a huge sinkhole in the limestone, and the Certosa di Trisulti, a Carthusian monastery in the woods of the Ernici mountains. The village stands at about 590 metres, in limestone country shaped by karst, and Alatri and Frosinone are the reference towns for work and services.

Tourism, mostly at weekends and in summer, shows in the services: the data record 11 bars and restaurants. For buyers, the historic centre offers stone houses on several levels, with alleys and steps; outside the village there are country houses and farmhouses. The climate zone is E, with cold winters at this altitude.

There are 879 residents (2023), down 9.8% since 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics institute. The estimated average age is 47.8, close to the provincial 46.8, and over-65s are 26.5%, just above the provincial 25.4%. Foreign residents are 3.8%. Declared incomes are slightly below the average for the province of Frosinone.

The Civil Protection department places Collepardo in seismic zone 2, like 59 of the 91 municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.172 g. For a stone house in the centre, a structural survey before making an offer is wise, especially if storeys have been added.

In karst country it pays to know the ground: landslides, collapses and cavities are checked for the individual address on the official maps the report consults. The Revenue Agency publishes the cadastral maps, so the land parcel can be traced.
