This page provides a virtual tour of the Torricella Peligna Cemetery, the final resting place of many of our loved ones. It is located just west of the town center, just past the Pinewood on the way to Fallascoso. As is the tradition in Italy, most grave markers include a photograph of the deceased family member along with the birth and death dates.
Approximately half the grave markers in the cemetery are listed below.  The photographs were taken in 2004.  They include nearly all the grave markers in the southern and northeastern parts of the cemetery. The northwestern section, just to the right of the entrance, still needs to be photographed and documented. Some photographs below are of marginal quality. If you have additional photos or ones of better quality, please submit them to us.

If you do not find your ancestor below, do not get discouraged. Italian law allows graves to be dug up after a certain number of years. This is especially true if there is no headstone present.

Since the early 1900s, cemetery custodians have maintained record books listing the names, dates, location, etc. of those buried in Torricella. We hope to digitize those record books some time in the future.
