The landscape around Marsico Nuovo is mountainous and wooded, which has shaped both the compact urban form and local economy. Set in the Lucanian Apennines above the Val d’Agri, this Basilicata town has an older core of narrow streets and stone-built houses arranged on the slope. Marsico Nuovo was an important episcopal centre, a legacy represented by the Co-Cathedral of San Giorgio in the historic centre. Its inland position places it far from Italy’s better-known coasts, with the valley connecting communities across this part of Basilicata.
