コンカデイマリーニのおすすめランニングルート

アマルフィの素晴らしい場所です。

One of Giovanni Guareschi's (1908-1968) wonderfully told short stories, popular far beyond the borders of Italy, featuring his two protagonists, Don Camillo and Peppone, is titled "Autumn." While most of his stories have a humorous tone, this one deals with a serious topic: the national commemoration of the fallen on November 4th. In a heated discussion with the priest, the communist mayor, Peppone, expresses his views as follows: "The people are fed up with all these wars and victories. The people know very well what war is and don't need speeches and appeals that glorify it." Don Camillo shook his head. "You're on the wrong track, Peppone. Nobody wants to glorify war. It's simply a matter of paying tribute and expressing gratitude to all those who suffered and lost their lives in this war." (G. Guareschi)

A beautiful, small, narrow village on the steep, rocky coast. Amafi is best reached by boat.

To reach the cathedral, you first have to climb 62 steps.

The entrance fee is money well spent, as the cathedral itself is well worth a visit. The church's decoration, with its magnificent wall and ceiling paintings and mosaics, is worth seeing.

A picturesque square in Amalfi where there is a monument in tribute to the victims of the Second World War, as well as an anchor, chains and a cannon from the cruiser "Amalfi".

Amalfi holds centuries of history in its folds of stone and sea. Born in Roman times, passed through the hands of the Byzantines and Lombards, in the Middle Ages it became one of the powerful Maritime Republics, an undisputed protagonist of trade in the Mediterranean between the 9th and 11th centuries. Today, its splendor is told by the narrow streets that climb between colorful houses, the ruined towers and the remains of ancient fortifications: living traces of a past that still whispers between the walls.

Overlooking the sea, the collegiate church of Santa Maria Maddalena has stood since 1274 on the remains of an ancient fortress, as a sign of gratitude for the liberation of the village from the Saracens. Its rococo façade, unique on the coast, is a little gem. Every 22nd July, the feast of the saint enlivens the town with an evocative procession and the scent of the “sarchiapone”, a long pumpkin stuffed and baked in the oven, queen of the table.
