Guardiagrele

Overview

Guardiagrele, in the province of Chieti, is the 'city of stone' narrated by Gabriele d'Annunzio in his 'Triumph of Death', a village with an ancient history that reached its peak around the 12th century. The town planning and architecture of the centre bear traces of this past: millenary towers, churches, old houses and narrow alleys, the village enchants with its tale of medieval atmospheres. The heart of Guardiagrele's identity, however, is its craftsmanship: the village saw the birth of schools of high perfection and prominent personalities such as Nicola da Guardiagrele, a pupil of Ghiberti, and still enchants today with the creations of art and craftsmanship that are made here, including the splendid artefacts of the goldsmith's art.
