<p>La certosa di Trisulti è un monastero situato nel comune di Collepardo, in provincia di Frosinone, circondato dal bosco demaniale di Selva d'Ecio, alle falde del monte Rotonaria (Monti Ernici). Il nome Trisulti deriva da quello latino tres saltibus con cui si indicava un castello del XII secolo, gestito dai Colonna, che dominava i tre valichi (o salti, appunto) diretti rispettivamente verso l'Abruzzo, Roma e l'area meridionale dello Stato della Chiesa e del quale restano oggi alcune rovine.<br />
