Liceo Classico statale Jacopo Stellini is a liceo classico in Udine, Italy, for pupils aged 14 to 19. The high school was founded in 1808, making it the oldest liceo classico in Udine. During World War I, Luigi Cadorna placed the headquarters of the Italian Army in the part of the school that had just been built in 1915, and after the war the liceo moved to its present location.
