**Feroleto Antico** ([Calabrian](/source/Central-Southern_Calabrian): *Herulìtu*) is a *[comune](/source/Comune)* and [town](/source/Town) in the province of [Catanzaro](/source/Catanzaro) in the [Calabria](/source/Calabria) region of [Italy](/source/Italy).

Feroleto Antico is located 280 meters above sea level in a territory predominantly hilly. The highest peak is Mount Mennazzo (749 m). It is crossed by the Badia river for approximately 13 km. The village is located within a small wooded valley. The municipality is located at the narrowest point of Italy, in the Isthmus of Catanzaro , in the center of [Calabria](/source/Calabria).

The town has been hit by various seismic events. The most serious was the earthquake of 28 March 1638, which razed the town to the ground which was subsequently rebuilt.
