Taverna is a splendid town which was the birthplace of the famous seventeenth-century painter Mattia Preti, whose numerous works it houses in the churches and the civic museum. Absolutely unmissable.

This stretch of road is truly spectacular and exciting to ride on your own bike, whatever it is. The surface is paved and the road crosses a stretch of spectacular vegetation: you'll feel like you're pedaling inside a painting.

This is Taverna, a small Italian town in the province of Catanzaro in Calabria. The village is located on the slopes of the mountains that make up the Sila Park. If you are crossing the Calabria Region along its "Parchi Calabria" cycle route I recommend a short stop here. A charging station for electric bicycles has been positioned in the center of the village, here you will also find some tools for maintaining your bike.

Beautiful panoramic road between Tiriolo and Taverna.

Town along the cycle path of the parks of Calabria near Monte Gariglione in the Sila Piccola.

Church of the Mount of the Dead and of Mercy, Catanzaro Although the date on the facade of the Church of Monte shows the date of 1728, the history of this sacred building, dear to the people of Catanzaro, dates back to the seventeenth century. In the fifteenth century, some Calabrian notables founded the Monte della Misericordia, through which funds were raised to carry out works of charity in the suffrage of the dead. After the capital (the mountain) was collected, a chapel for the souls of purgatory was built. In 1739 the church was consecrated. The central dome of 1769 is decorated with a painting of Saint Philip Neri surrounded by four evangelists. Inside the church, among other things, four paintings by Catanzaro Stadera from 1753 and a Madonna with angels by Giovanni Del Prete from 1642 have been preserved. On the portal a papier-mâché crucifix of the 600. Text / Source: Comune Catanzaro https://www.comune.catanzaro.it/la-citta/

Basilica-Santuario Maria SS Immacolata, Catanzaro For the people of Catanzaro, the Basilica of the Immaculate is the building most dear to memory, as it is inextricably linked with the cult of the Most Holy Virgin Immaculate, patron saint of the city. The original hall structure of the Franciscan Church from the thirteenth century has been rebuilt several times. The facade is neoclassical.

Statua del Cavatore, Catanzaro "The Cavatore" is the symbol of Catanzaro, the capital of the Calabria region, the man who works with shortness of breath and without breathing space, constantly struggling to survive in a country torn apart by environmental disasters (mainly earthquakes) of a capricious and severe nature that has always put all Calabrians to the test. "Il Cavatore" (the man who digs the rock) was made in the second half of the twentieth century and is a bronze sculpture on a granite plinth positioned in a niche made of neoclassical brick that is part of the monumental complex of San Giovanni (old Norman Castle) is in Piazza Matteotti. The complex dominates the entire square with the chromatic contrast created between the bronze of the statue and the gray granite of the bas-relief surrounded by the water of the fountain. The author - sculptor of Il Cavatore is Giuseppe Rito, a self-taught artist who had a rather short life (1907-1963) but nevertheless left many testimonies of the passage on earth and created important sculptures such as the bronze group of the last two goddesses Justice and Freedom guarding the grand staircase of the Palace of Justice in Catanzaro. The technique used by Giuseppe Rito makes his works very powerful, with the technique of the striped clay he obtained an expressionistic effect in which the aggression against matter could be understood as the marks left in everyone's life by the passing existence. The themes he chooses are the emblem of social awareness, of how tough life is in conditions of constant struggle. The imposing bronze sculpture of Il Cavatore is just one of the works that surround Piazza Matteotti, in fact there is also a monument to the fallen of the First World War, always in bronze but by the Calabrian sculptor Michele Guerrisi, who was affected by the bombing of 1943 was badly damaged during World War II; the Palace of the Court of Appeal; and the Grande Albergo Moderno (first a luxury hotel, now home to a bank).
