Cassino () is a comune in the province of Frosinone at the southern end of the region of Lazio.

It is located at the foot of Monte Cairo near the confluence of the Gari and Liri rivers and on the via Casilina between Rome and Naples. The city is best known as the site of the Abbey of Montecassino and the Battle of Monte Cassino during World War II, which resulted in huge Allied and German casualties, as well as the nearly total destruction of the town itself. It is also home to the University of Cassino and Southern Lazio.
