A memorial to ancient times, the surrounding area has recently been redeveloped, making it more pleasant to walk/cycle there.

An imposing bronze statue dedicated to the legendary Gleaner of Sapri, the protagonist of Luigi Mercantini's famous poem. It depicts the young peasant girl who, according to the poem, witnessed Carlo Pisacane's ill-fated expedition in 1857. Located on the Sapri seafront, the statue overlooks the Gulf of Policastro and offers a spectacular panoramic view, a symbol of freedom and historical memory.

The Spigolatrice of Sapri is the protagonist of the homonymous poem by Luigi Mercantini. The poem is inspired by Carlo Pisacane's failed Sapri expedition (1857) with which he wanted to trigger an anti-Bourbon revolution in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

Sapri is bordered by wide pebble beaches. Although these are not the most beautiful beaches to be found on the Cilento coast, the water is clear. A variety of fish offer an interesting underwater world for divers and snorkelers.

Every year, in the month of August, the historical re-enactment of Carlo Pisacane's landing takes place here. The "Three hundred" from the poem of Luigi Mercantini's Spigolatrice are remembered: "They were three hundred, were young and strong and are dead."

A very nice promenade in Sapri Bay

The sculpture pays homage to La Spigolatrice di Sapri, an 1857 poem by Luigi Mercantini. The bronze statue of a woman in a transparent dress is described by many as "sexist". Some even call for them to be dismantled.

«Apprezzami l'Asino» is the path that until the beginning of the last century was considered to be the only path that connected Sapri to Maratea, an important road for trade and the exchange of goods, which, as a children's book shows, was done on donkeys were transported. According to the legend, if two donkeys came towards each other, the donkey that had loaded the inferior goods had to give way. But that also meant that a donkey was pushed into the sea 😳.
