From the train station up to the historic center, it's quite a climb, but the effort is worthwhile – even if you're not going to see the Christ the Redeemer statue. Beautiful streets and squares. There are supposed to be 44 churches, but most of them are probably closed.

A 21-meter-high statue has stood atop Monte San Biagio since 1965. It is considered a landmark of Maratea. However, its erection was controversial among local politicians at the time. Originally, an iron cross stood on this spot, commemorating the defense against Napoleon's troops in 1806. It was later replaced by this statue of Jesus, whose face does not bear the typical features of Jesus, as his hair and beard are short. He looks more like an angel—a savior who points with open arms to the Creator in heaven and with both feet firmly planted on the ground, symbolizing the acceptance of sinners.

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.

Once you reach the area of Christ the Redeemer in Maratea, taking a small road on the left of the path that leads to Christ, you can see what remains of the ancient center of upper Maratea, known as "Castello" due to its appearance as a fortified village.

Beautiful village on the Sentiero Italia

Beautiful 360° panoramas

Does anyone know if the closed point has been reopened? Thanks

Breathtaking views; in particular Maratea and San Nicola Arcella
