Formia - Museums

Museo Archeologico Nazionale

The National Archaeological Museum of Formia is located in the elegant historic center of the village. It houses statues and archaeological finds for a long time exhibited in the Archaeological Museum of Naples. The main hall of the Museum shows the visitor a composition of amphorae and remains of shells from ancient age. In the same room there are statues dating from the first to the second century AD depicting the virility of the heroes, while in the second room, two acephalous female statues are observed.

Minturno - Churches and places of worship

Chiesa dell'Annunziata

It was built around 1300 at the behest of the Minutilli family, in Gothic style. It underwent several renovations over the centuries due to the damage caused, first by the Turks in 1552, then by the Franco-Polish troops in 1799 and the fire of 1888 and also since the last World War. In 1930, after the demolition of the Baroque altars, the “Madonna with the Child” and “The Crucifixion” came to light by Giotto or one of his students, while traveling from Naples (1333).

Scauri - Churches and places of worship

Chiesa di M. SS. Immacolata

In ancient times it was the Ducal Chapel of the Caracciolo Carafa family, and since 1931 it became the Parish of the Immaculate Conception, patroness of Scauri. Also frequented by the wife of Vittorio Emanuele III, Elena of Savoia during her holiday, where she went to hear Mass. The patroness is celebrated on 8 September with a solemn procession of the statue of the Virgin Mary, carved by the South Tyrolean cabinetmaker Giuseppe Obletter, in 1954.

Itri - Castles, palaces and mansions

Castello Carafa

The castle was built in the 9th century, at the behest of the Duke of Gaeta. In the tenth century the structure was modified by the Duke's nephew, Marino I, who added a second tower. Over the centuries he had several owners, who modified and enlarged the building in turn. Currently, the castle can be very well visited, and in it there are exhibitions, markets and various ceremonies. It is said that the ghosts of the sentenced to death wander in the castle, so it's the ideal place for horror enthusiasts.
