Matera Essentials

Matera is one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, defined by its UNESCO-listed Sassi districts. This selection covers the city's unique architectural evolution, from the 13th-century Romanesque cathedral to rock-hewn churches like the Crypt of Original Sin, featuring 8th-century frescoes. The list includes the Palumbaro Lungo, a massive underground cistern system, and various museum houses that illustrate traditional cave life. Strategic viewpoints across the Gravina canyon provide context for this complex urban landscape carved directly into the calcarenite rock.
