Cagnano Amiterno is a town and comune (municipality) in the Province of L'Aquila in the Abruzzo region of central–southern Italy. It is located in the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park.[5]
Cagnano was the seat of the former Latin Catholic bishopric of Amiterno. The toponym of Sala, one of the frazioni (boroughs) in the comune, may suggest the area was a Lombard settlement.[6]
