Morrovalle is a hilly town which was probably founded during the Middle Ages, although people had lived there even in ancient times.

A cylindrical tufa monolith dating back to prehistoric times has been found In the countryside. The oldest epigraph of the whole Picene area is written on it.

The former entrance gates to the town and valuable examples of civil and sacred architecture are still preserved: the building of the chief magistrate, the civil tower and Palazzo lazzarini, all dating back to the 14^th century, the 17^th century church of St. Augustine where a peculiar Madonna made of leather dating back to the end of the 13^th century is preserved; the former Augustinian convent (17^th century) where a ladder attributed to Vanvitelli can be found and the 18^th century Town Hall.
