Once again, we bring you the Top 10 provinces of the month! With Easter just around the corner and longer spring days, we’ve got a whole new slew of places to visit in Italy in April! Take a look!
1. Avellino
An absolute must if you’re visiting the Avellino province is its wonderful fairytale castles.
Dating back to the Middle Ages, many of the castles were transformed into homes for noble families over the years. Almost every commune in Irpinia so you’re truly spoilt for choice.
We recommend Morra Castle, once the home of cardinals and poets, and Castello di Sant'Angelo dei Lombardi. Today we’d like to suggest Castello di San Barbato, which stands on a hill at 450 meters. A fascinating architectural complex from the Lombard era, the castle is located in Manocalzati. At the fortress you can admire the monumental staircase leading to the entrance and its stunning rounded doorway.
In Lauro you can visit Lancellotti Castle, built in a scenic spot at the start of the XI century and famous for its artistic value. The fortress is still considered one of the best preserved defensive complexes in the Campania region.
