Castelseprio is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Varese in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 35km (22miles) northwest of Milan and about 11km (07miles) south of Varese, bordering the municipalities of Cairate, Carnago, Gornate-Olona and Lonate Ceppino.

The site is most famous for the Byzantinesque frescos in the small Church of Santa Maria foris portas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011.
The modern village of Castelseprio has a population of 1,276 [1] and area of 3.9km2.[2]
