Settefrati is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Frosinone in the Italian region Lazio, located about 120km (80miles) east of Rome and about 40km (30miles) east of Frosinone.
The territory of Settefrati houses the ancient Sanctuary of Canneto; near to it, in 1958, remains of an ancient temple dedicated to the Italic goddess Mefitis was found (c. 3rd century BC).
In 1974 less than a kilometre from the town centre, at Casa Firma, remains of a Roman villa dating to the late Imperial era were found.[2]
Of the 10th-century castle a tower and some ruins remain.
