Beautiful village near Campobasso

It is a corner of serenity

The historic center is beautiful and rises up to the Monforte castle.

The musician appears here casually, the singer born in Campobasso and known under the stage name FRED BONGUSTO. In a standing position, one foot raised so that the guitar can be supported on the raised thigh.

Campobasso is the capital of the Molise Region, an Apennine town full of greenery where there is no shortage of places to visit. The historic center contains the main tourist attractions, a visit by bike is not very feasible due to the stairways typical of the ancient villages of central Italy, but the distances are very short so it is possible to move around easily on foot. Despite this, among the various places the Monforte Castle stands out, reachable by bike from a completely asphalted climb. Worthy of note are the Sannitico Provincial Museum and the Museum of the Mysteries, the latter preserves throughout the year the "Mysteries" or processional machines, allegorical-religious scenic structures that allow figures to parade and be carried on their shoulders through the streets of city on Corpus Domini Sunday. The city offers fine public fountains where you can stop for a break and then leave again. Leaving the city it is easy to reach other small villages within a few kilometers while enjoying the hilly panorama that connects the various centres.

Campodipietra is a convenient point of passage to catch your breath and hydrate at the public fountains as well as in the central activities of the town. Its position is strategic because it is at the center of many possible tours both in terms of distance and difficulty, all surrounded by greenery. In addition to being a village bordering the capital and being very close to the state road to Foggia, from Campodipietra it is possible to move easily on pleasant provincial roads towards hilly towns such as Jelsi and Gildone, from which it is possible to move towards higher altitudes and historical/cultural centers such as Riccia and Cercemaggiore. Furthermore, it is possible to discover characteristic villages such as Toro and San Giovanni in Galdo from which it is possible to easily reach other important centers such as Matrice and Campolieto via provincial roads that offer truly relaxing hilly views because they have little traffic.

Fred Bongusto, pseudonym of Alfredo Antonio Carlo Buongusto (Campobasso, 6 April 1935 – Rome, 8 November 2019), thanks to his persuasive voice was one of the most loved Italian singers between the Sixties and Seventies.
