Pescosansonesco is a comune and town in the province of Pescara in the Abruzzo region of Italy. It is 500 metres above sea level in the natural park known as the "Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park".
Famous for its sanctuary, the village is divided into two parts: the old suburb, "Pescosansonesco Vecchio", which was abandoned in 1944 due to numerous landslides caused by a series of earthquakes, and the new village, "Pescosansonesco Nuovo", built some 3 km away, in the “Ambrosian” region. Before the establishment of Pescosansonesco in the 10th century, there was an ancient settlement, called a pagus. The pre-Roman inhabitants of the area created a sanctuary at Lake Morrone in the 5th century BC.
