Martinsicuro

Province: Teramo · Region: Abruzzo · Population: 15,484 · Postal code: 64014

Sitting directly on the right bank where the Tronto River meets the Adriatic Sea, Martinsicuro forms the northernmost tip of Abruzzo. For travelers heading south along the coast, this town marks the exact geographical entry point into the region from the neighboring Marche.

Long before its current iteration as a seaside municipality of around 15,400 residents, the area was known to the Romans as Truentum or Castrum Truentinum. Today, it anchors the Val Vibrata district at the northern edge of the Teramo province.
