Itinerary

Main stop

Piazza Vittorio Veneto, 75100 MT

Start your walk at Piazza Vittorio Veneto in Matera. Just open Ciceru nearby to begin exploring the plaza that casually sits on top of a hidden underground water world.

Via San Biagio, 75100 MT

Stand outside this rare free standing church in a city of caves, and let its Romanesque façade prove Matera can do above ground swagger too.

Piazza S.Pietro Barisano, Matera

Admire the elegant front that acts like a polite disguise for the vast rock carved church hiding behind it.

Piazza del Duomo, , Matera

From Piazza Duomo, look up at the tuff stone crown of the Civita, watching the Sassi below like a medieval supervisor on a high balcony.

Via Domenico Ridola, 75100 Matera

Study the skulls and swirls on the exterior, Baroque beauty with the subtle charm of a deadline.

Piazzetta Pascoli, 75100 MT

Lean on the railing and take in the Sassi panorama, the view that went from “national shame” to global icon with suspicious speed.

Sasso Caveoso, Matera

See how the church merges into the cliff, a building that cannot decide if it is architecture or geology.

Vico Solitario, 11, , 75100 Matera

Pause by the modest archway, the only part that is not pure cave, and imagine a whole family and a mule sharing the same address.

Via Madonna dell'Idris, 75100 MT

Gaze up at the chapel perched on the Monterrone rock spur, a silhouette so dramatic it looks like the mountain grew its own church.

Piazza S. Pietro Caveoso, 75100 MT

Wrap up your tour at Chiesa dei Santi Pietro e Paolo (Caveoso). Take a moment to enjoy the canyon edge and the cliffside bravado before ending your tour.
