Guardia Perticara

Overview

Everyone calls Perticara the 'town of the stone houses': arriving in the town, people are fascinated by the imposing presence of this material, which seems to have forged the village, making it a place with a strong, timeless identity: perhaps this is why the director Francesco Rosi chose it to film some scenes of 'Christ Stopped at Eboli'. The stone is also one of the protagonists of the Archaeological Exhibition 'Archaeology of an Oenotrian centre', which, with a precious collection of ceramic, bronze and amber artefacts, tells the story of one of the most important Italic peoples of southern Italy, the Oenotrians, thus narrating the most ancient roots of this land. Finally, not to be missed is the Patronal Festival dedicated to St. Nicholas the Great, where ancient gestures, rituals and spirituality have been repeated unchanged for centuries, creating an evocative and exciting atmosphere.
