Campobasso

Campobasso occupies a hillside position in the central Apennines of Molise. The older quarters climb toward Castello Monforte, a fortress rebuilt in the 15th century after an earthquake and now one of the city’s clearest landmarks. Below it, streets and squares connect the historic centre with a modern provincial capital whose life is shaped by Molise’s inland setting. The surrounding country belongs to the Biferno basin, while the Matese mountains lie to the south. Campobasso is especially associated with the Mysteries, the Corpus Christi procession in which elaborate religious tableaux are carried through the streets.
