What to expect

  1. Belvedere Pascoli
    15m
    It is the most suggestive viewpoint of the city. Illuminated night Matera is a nativity scene in the nativity scene.
  2. Casa grotta del Casalnuovo
    30m · Admission ticket included
    In Casa Grotta del Casalnuovo you can experience a real house of the Sassi through its original furniture and the tools of daily use that the family that lived there used in everyday life. What are commonly called Case Grotta are real ethnographic collections, small museums with objects of common use and work from the times when the Sassi were inhabited, before the depopulation occurred in the fifties. Inside, the original rooms and furnishings of the house are reconstructed before the ancient districts were depopulated in the late 1950s.
  3. Piazza San Pietro Caveoso
    15m
    It is the heart of the Sasso Caveoso, the oldest area carved into the rock located in front of the caves of prehistoric times from which you can admire the valley of Gravina
  4. Chiesa Rupestre di San Giuliano o Madonna Delle Grazie
    30m · Admission ticket included
    The Church of the Madonna delle Grazie is a very small, but pretty rock church, located in the Sasso Caveoso area, a few meters from the Casa Cisterna.

    This small church deserves to be included among the things to see in Matera as it is a gem and is far from the crowds of tourists.
  5. Sasso Barisano
    30m
    The Sassi di Matera are two districts of Matera, Sasso Caveoso and Sasso Barisano, formed by buildings and rock architecture carved into the rock of the Murgia materana. Together with the Civita district, they constitute the historic center of the city of Matera. In 1993 they were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
