Roseto Capo Spulico was named after the roses that were cultivated there.
The petals were used to fill the mattresses on which the sybaritic slept. The Rose Garden today was born in the tenth century AD and reached its peak in 1260 when the Castrum Petrae Roseti (castle of Roseto) was built. It is also known for The Church of the Immaculate Conception, built in the 15th century, a rustic, masonry church that sits on the edge of a cliff.
As a tourist destination, Roseto is known for its beaches and seaside resorts.
