Paestum: A Timeless Treasure
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1998, Paestum is a renowned archaeological marvel located in Capaccio, Salerno. The “Piana di Paestum,” a fertile plain stretching from the hills to the sea, has been inhabited since prehistoric times.
A City of Myths and History
According to Roman geographer Strabo, Jason and the Argonauts stopped at the Sele River to dedicate a shrine to Hera, protector of the Argonauts. Around 600 BC, Greeks founded Poseidonia, honoring the god of the sea, and began constructing its iconic temples in the mid-6th century BC.
Magnificent Temples and Walls
The three Greek temples, among the best-preserved structures of the classical age, stand at the heart of a city enclosed by monumental walls with 28 towers and four gates.
Cultural Evolution
Conquered by the Lucanians around 400 BC, and later by Rome in 273 BC, Paestum underwent significant transformations while preserving its ancient grandeur.
Rediscovery and Legacy
Rediscovered in the Renaissance, Paestum gained fame during the Grand Tour in the 18th century, attracting figures like Piranesi and Goethe. Excavations, starting in 1907, revealed most of its monuments, and the National Museum, inaugurated in 1952, preserves its rich history.
Paestum remains a mesmerizing destination where myth, art, and history converge to captivate visitors.Paestum:
