Posta Fibreno, the village above the lake and the Fibreno springs

The lake of Posta Fibreno, fed by springs and protected as a regional nature reserve, is why many people know this municipality in the province of Frosinone. Its water is clear and cold, a floating island of peat and vegetation drifts on its surface, and the river Fibreno flows out of it. The village is higher up, at around 430 metres, on a hill overlooking the valley.

Houses in the centre are built of stone, along alleys and flights of steps; further down, towards the lake and along the roads, there are newer homes and a few villas. If you are buying near the water, be aware that the reserve places limits on land use and building work, to be checked with the town hall before you plan an extension. Average declared income is above that of the province.

Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,027 residents in 2023, 190 fewer than at the 2011 census (a fall of 15.6%). The average age is 51.2 against 46.8 in the province, and over-65s make up 33.6%. Foreign residents account for 3.6%.

The province of Frosinone has municipalities in seismic zones 1, 2 and 3. Posta Fibreno is in zone 1 with 29 others, and the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is 0.251 g. For a stone house in the old centre, have an engineer check the walls and how they are tied to the floors before you sign.

Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral maps cover the municipality and the report finds the land parcel from the address. For homes near the lake and the river it also shows the official flood hazard maps.
