Battipaglia

Built around a railway junction on the Sele Plain, Battipaglia grew into a commercial and agricultural centre in southern Campania. The town lies inland from the Tyrrhenian Sea, between Salerno and the lowlands shaped by the Sele River. Its station remains an important meeting point for routes south toward Calabria and east across the Apennines. Battipaglia is closely associated with the buffalo farms of the surrounding plain and with Mozzarella di Bufala Campana, the protected cheese produced in this part of Italy. Rather than an old hill town, it is a working modern centre where transport, markets and food production remain central.
