Stigliano

The landscape around Stigliano is a rugged upland of central Basilicata, which has shaped both the town’s compact hilltop form and its traditionally agricultural local economy. In the province of Matera, the settlement stands near the headwaters of the Cavone River, amid ridges, cultivated fields and woodland, far from the Ionian coast. Its historic core is marked by narrow streets and the Church of Santa Maria Assunta, a longstanding religious and civic landmark. Stigliano reflects the inland Lucanian world, where seasonal farming and local food traditions still set the rhythm of life.
