Pignola: the City of a hundred portals

A must in Basilicata is certainly Pignola, also known as the City of a hundred portals; an architectural miracle of hundreds of small houses that wind in orderly succession to the top of the hill; at every step you can admire its famous portals, not a hundred but two hundred, the work of the expert hands of local artists. Each portal has its own particularity: from those with simple and elegant lines, to others with more complex and elaborate bas-reliefs; each of them has a unique history to rediscover and admire, each representing a different technique and a different passion. A real pearl not to be missed.
