Agropoli

Overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the southern end of the Gulf of Salerno, sitting just below the Piana del Sele, Agropoli was an important maritime location for the Romans. Today, it hosts a large tourist port and is the main gateway leading from the sea to the National Park of Client and Vallo di Diano. In the old town, a great portion of the medieval city wails is still visible, together with the original 7th century portal reached by monumental stairs, one of the very few remaining examples of this particular architectural style. The Anjevin-Aragonese castle, one of the town's main sights, has a peculiar triangular plan and 3 circular towers, one angle cutting deep inside the ancient burg, and the opposite face looking over the sea from a steep cliff. Another important site are the ancient Church dedicated to the Saints Peter and Paul and the church of Santa Maria of Constantinople, VI century.
