Medieval towns of Italy.

Travelling to Italy means contemplating centuries and centuries of history, attending to a lesson that will not be able to find in books and, above all, living an incomparable experience.

A place that can transport you to past times, like the Medieval Era. Italy preserves the most beautiful Medieval towns, and today in Ice Tech we want to discover them with you.

1- Cortona.

Located at the south-east of the Tuscany and at the south of the province of Arezzo, it is the main tourist and cultural centre of Val di Chiana. It is the oldest Etruscan town in the Tuscany.

Lose yourself in its narrow streets and discover this historical and architectural monument :).

2- Matera. 

A city of the region of Basilicata. In its particular old town, you will find the famous “Sassi”, which are excavated houses in limestone rock; and the group of rock churches.

Known as the second Bethlehem, Matera is like returning to the forgotten past.

3- Pitigliano.

A town of the province of Grosseto, at the south of the Tuscany. It is located on the top of a volcanic mountain and surrounded by green vegetation, just over 300 meters above the sea level.

In its surroundings you will find Etruscan remains and monuments of the Medieval and Renaissance times.

A luxury for history and nature lovers 🙂

4- Positano.

Located in the region of Campania. Its mild climate and beautiful surroundings make it become one of the most important tourist destinations on the Amalfi Coast. Its buildings belong to the Arab architecture built on steep streets.

A picturesque place that allows small boutiques enjoy fashion.

5- Volterra.

We can find this municipality in the heart of the Tuscany, which is considered to be a living sanctuary of architecture and Roman, Medieval and Renaissance art. Its historic citadel, surrounded by walls and erected on top of a hill above sea level, create a fascinating natural spectacle leaving a city of charm and great beauty.
