In the province of Cosenza, in the middle of the Pollino National Park, we find one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.<\/p>\n

We are talking about Morano Calabro, which lies in the high valley of the Coscile River, at the foot of the Calabrian massif.<\/p>\n

The whole town looks like a lovely “panoramic view”: the houses seem piled on each other, and inside the village the harmony between alleys and noble palaces is clearly perceptible.<\/p>\n

Certainly founded by the Romans, Morano Calabro was involved in a long battle against the Saracens in the early Middle Ages: clash that saw the triumph of the citizens of the Calabrian village.<\/p>\n

Ceded to the Spinelli princes of Scalea in 1614 until the end of feudalism, Morano Calabro was affected by a significant migration between the 800 and the early ‘900, which caused a strong population decline.<\/p>\n

Precisely for this reason, in the ’80s, the town ratified the twinning with Porto Alegre: it is estimated that about 15,000 natives of Morano reside in the Brazilian city.<\/p>\n

\"san-bernardino-da-siena-morano-calabro\"The jewel of Morano Calabro is undoubtedly the Church of San Bernardino da Siena: the style is late Gothic and the interior reminds a bit the typical characteristics of the Franciscan environments, strict but at the same time imbued with spirituality.<\/p>\n

Walking through the district of Lauri you reach the wonderful Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas.<\/p>\n

From there you enter a dense grid of squares, underpasses and alleys that leads to the Castle, of Norman origin.<\/p>\n

Always continuing, you can easily get to the other Collegiate, that of SS. Peter and Paul: This church is the oldest in the entire village (dating to around 1000, ed).<\/p>\n

Do not miss out on visiting also the beautiful noble palaces: the Scorza-Aronne Palace, the Salmena Palace (which houses the Museum of Agriculture and Pastoralism), the Lauria Palace and the Rocca Palace over all.<\/p>\n

Also take a trip to the Caves of St. Paul, a complex of caves located on the plateau of Campotenese: the stalactites and stalagmites that upholster these caves create an authentic spectacle that will definitely leave you speechless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
