Pignola

Pignola sits in the Lucanian Apennines in Basilicata, Italy, where a compact hill town rises above the Pantano di Pignola wetland. This protected lake-and-marsh area is an important stop for birds and gives the municipality an unusually close connection to water and open countryside for an inland Apennine settlement. In the historic centre, stone-built houses, narrow lanes and small squares follow the contours of the slope, while the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore is a focal point of local religious life. Pignola also lies near Potenza, Basilicata’s regional capital. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Pignola and Basilicata.
