History and art

medieval villages, castles, lost cities...

The rich history of these lands and the creative spirit of theirs in habitants have marked the cultural development of the Alto Casertano.

We propose you a travel through its immense and rich historical and archaeological patrimony: you should visit not only the well known "Reggia of Caserta" and the "Ancient Capua", but also the unknown itinerary like "the lost cities of the Sanniti", "Teanum Sidicinum", Filangieri Palace, the castle of Prata Sannita... etc.

Castles, fortresses, churches, amphitheatres of roman and pre-Roman age allow the tourist to complete an imaginary travel throughout over two thousand history years.

The Alto Casertano is a small historical and archaeological treasures casket, nearly never protected or brought out. We remember the amphitheatre of the Ancient Cales, the Theatre of Teanum Sidicinum, the ancient Via latina, the lost cities of the Sanniti like Callifae, Austicola, Saticula, Trebula Ballienensis, Rufrae,...etc.
