Sperlonga is a very picturesque small seaside town in Italy, south of Rome on the Tyrrhenian coast. Its white-painted houses make it a bit reminiscent of some Greek islands.
It is easily accessible by private and public transportation means.
The School will take place inside the fascinating monument of Santa Maria, the most ancient church of Sperlonga (early 12th century), located at Via Porta Piccola della Chiesa in the very heart of the old town.
Please note that private cars are not allowed into the city centre at any time.
