In this contribution, results of studies concerning the spatio‐temporal evolution of source properties and ground motion of small magnitude earthquakes occurred during the preparatory phase of the Mw 6.3 earthquake that hit L’Aquila on 6 April 2009 and those of the three main earthquakes occurred in central Italy between 2016 and 2017 will be presented.
