Torrice (Central Italian dialect: Torge) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Frosinone in the Italian region of Lazio, located about 80 kilometres (50 mi) southeast of Rome and about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) east of Frosinone.

Torrice borders the municipalities of Arnara, Boville Ernica, Frosinone, Ripi and Veroli.

History

Founded in the Middle Ages, the city was subjected to the authority of the papal authority. In 1870, it was therefore annexed to the kingdom and became part of the province of Frosinone in 1927.
