Elice is a comune and town in the Province of Pescara in the Abruzzo region of Italy

History

The territory, thanks to the fertility of the land, was inhabited already in Paleolithic times. The name of the village derives from holm-oaks, which once covered the area. During the 15th century it belonged to the town of Penne and for a long time to the Castiglione family. It was famous in the late XIX century for its ceramic workshops.
