Frasso Sabino is a pleasant medieval Italian town, which hosts the Frasso Sabino Observatory, at no charge, in a seventeenth-century flour mill that was modified for this purpose. Dedicated to Virginio Cesarini, the observatory was given in 1995 to the Roman Amateur Astronomers Association for didactic and scientific use.Naming citation (20020427/MPCPages.arc), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
