Campobasso
Untouched nature and small picturesque medieval villages
The Province of Campobasso, located in central Italy, comprises 84 communes. The greater part of its territory is mountainous and its landscape is characterized by a wide variety of vegetation. There is a considerable tourist interest for this area; Campobasso offers its visitors untouched nature and small picturesque villages that have preserved the original medieval features of their centers, which are also interesting from an artistic, archaeological and historical point of view.
Traces of ancient cultures are visible to a larger extent in the town of Larino with the remains of amphitheater and polychrome mosaics, whereas in the ager near Sepino are the remains of the Roman town Saepinum in the vicinity of Altilia. The hills gently descend towards the sea, which in the historical tale of the province has never been a boundary, but a connecting element for dialogue with other cross border communities. This province is the home of ethnic Croatian and Albanian communities, guaranteeing them specific cultural rights.
