The Monastery of San Benedetto in Valledacqua is situated in a hill, pretty close to the National Park of Sibillini Mountains and the National Park of Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga ; it dates back to 970 a.d.; the frescoes on some walls retain the original architecture. It was completely restored in 2002 by Ascoli Piceno's Curia and the Ministry of Culture in 2002 ; it now houses a community of Camaldolesi Nuns. The simple facade has a thirteenth century sail shaped tower. The monastery includes a guesthouse, with a total capacity of 38 rooms; it is open all around the year and welcomes those who wish to share the experience of prayer and liturgy with the nuns in a peaceful atmosphere.
