San Felice del Molise (also called Filić or Štifilić) is a small town and comune in the province of Campobasso in the Molise region of Italy, near the Trigno river.
Like the smaller towns of Montemitro and Acquaviva Collecroce, San Felice del Molise is home to a community of Molisian Croats, most of whom speak a particular Croatian dialect (known as simply na-našo or naš jezik, meaning "our language") as well as Italian. There are differences in the dialects of the three towns, but they all descend from the Shtokavian-Ikavian dialect of Dalmatia. The language is considered an endangered diaspora language.
Main sights include the Norman Chapel of S. Felice and the church of Santa Maria di Costantinopoli.
