A sanctuary, the destination of an annual pilgrimage linked to a legend. The Madonna is said to have appeared in a dream to a bandit, commanding him to build a chapel dedicated to her and to convert to a better life. The basilica was later built around this chapel.

The Sanctuary of the Madonna di Porto in Gimigliano, Calabria, is one of the most important Marian shrines in the region and a central site of popular piety. The origins of the shrine date back to 1626, when Calabria was struck by a plague epidemic and earthquakes. During this time, the painter Marcangione began a painting of the Madonna di Costantinopoli. According to legend, the image was miraculously completed overnight, which was interpreted as a divine sign. This image, considered "acheropit" (not made by human hands), became a center of veneration. Later, the Madonna appeared in a dream to a local brigand named Pietro Gatto. After his conversion, he built a small chapel, which formed the foundation stone of the present shrine.

Poorly maintained but still looks old

The "Tavolaria" bridge about 1500 meters from Cannavina was built in the Spanish period in 1592 with a single arch in sun-baked bricks while the shoulders were built entirely with local stone and lime; the left shoulder rests on a very characteristic rock spur. It connected, via mule tracks, the lands to the left of the river with those exposed to the east, and was important for the trade of agricultural and sheep-farming products which were brought to the markets of Rogliano. But, in addition to its rough and primitive architectural beauty, it fascinates us with its history and the legend linked to this area from which it takes its name: Tavolaria. King Oenotrio, finding himself traveling up the Savuto valley, encountered much resistance from his enemies in the area. To defeat them, he worked with cunning by asking for a truce and inviting them to a lavish dinner and, after getting them drunk, he killed them all. The Cannavina locality takes its name from the Cannavino stream, a tributary of the Savuto river, and is one of the refreshment places of the Rogliano people characterized by a waterfall which at the base forms a basin of water, the so-called "vullu" in the local dialect. Cannavino/a could mean "guzzling wine" precisely because of the coolness and beauty of the place which invites the typical conviviality of the people of the valley.

The castle is not particularly maintained and cared for but also for this reason it retains a great charm.

The Norman-Swabian Castle of Nicastro, an ancient medieval fortress built by the Byzantines or Normans, dominates the historic district of San Teodoro in Lamezia Terme. Despite the damage caused by the earthquake of 1638, the castle retains the traces of four towers, bastions and a wall. Its history is linked to the tragic imprisonment of Henry VII, the rebellious son of Frederick II. Today, it offers a fascinating insight into Calabria's medieval history.

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.
