Corigliano-Rossano
Corigliano-Rossano sits on the Plain of Sybaris in Calabria, Italy, where low cultivated hills meet the Ionian coast. The municipality was created in 2018 through the union of Corigliano Calabro and Rossano, two historic centres with distinct identities. Corigliano’s medieval old town climbs toward the Castello Ducale, a fortified residence reshaped over centuries, while Rossano is closely associated with the Codex Rossanensis, a sixth-century illuminated Gospel manuscript. Around Corigliano Scalo, olive groves, citrus orchards and farmland spread across the plain; the harbour of Schiavonea connects this agricultural district to the sea. The setting combines the working landscape of the Sibaritide with the older settlements above it.

Among the cities of Calabria, Corigliano-Rossano stands out for its 2018 creation from the historic towns of Corigliano Calabro and Rossano. Their older quarters rise above the Ionian coast, on the southern edge of the Plain of Sibari and beneath Calabria’s inland hills. Rossano is closely associated with the Codex Rossanensis, a sixth-century Greek gospel manuscript displayed at the Diocesan and Codex Museum and listed in UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register. In Corigliano, the Castello Ducale is a principal landmark of the historic centre.

Calabria stretches from the Tyrrhenian coast to the Ionian shore, encompassing the rugged southern Apennines and long Mediterranean beaches. At Italy’s southern tip, the region is separated from Sicily by the Strait of Messina, while the wooded Sila plateau and Aspromonte massif give its interior a markedly different character from the coast. Ancient Greek colonies once flourished here, and the Riace Bronzes—two celebrated fifth-century BC Greek statues—are displayed at the National Archaeological Museum of Reggio Calabria. Bergamot cultivation around Reggio Calabria and spicy ’nduja from Spilinga are enduring local signatures. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Calabria.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
