Overview

We will discover together what was once defined as the “national shame”. Today, Matera, with its Sassi and the Park of rock churches, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993.
Millennia of history and almost uninterrupted human presence have made Matera today a city that has so much to show; we will try to tell it and get to know it.
