Route
The hypogeum Materasum, also known as Matera Sotterranea, is a complex excavated in the tuff rock. This site can be described as a “city under the city”. Really impressive!
The Palazzo dell’Annunziata in Matera, located in Piazza Vittorio Veneto, is the building that currently houses the Provincial Library “Tommaso Stigliani.”
A “palombaro” is an underground structure designed to collect and store water. The “Palombaro Lungo” in Matera is located under Piazza Vittorio Veneto and was built in several phases starting in the 16th century.
When we talk about the Sassi, we are referring to the historical part of Matera, divided into three main areas: the Sasso Barisano to the North-West, the Sasso Caveoso to the South and the Civita in the center that separates them.
The Cathedral of Maria Santissima della Bruna and Sant’Eustachio, also known as the Duomo of Matera, was completed in 1270 and stands on the Civita, the highest point of the city where the first settlement of the Sassi originated. This area was previously home to a Benedictine monastery dedicated to Sant’Eustachio, consecrated in 1082.
Casa Noha is located in the Civita district, a natural rock that separates the Sasso Caveoso and Sasso Barisano districts. This building, dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries, was once the home of the noble de Noha family.
Located in the middle of the Sasso Caveoso, more precisely on the rocky promontory of Monterrone and is partly dug into the rock and partly built after the collapse of the vault that occurred before the 16th century.
This church is located in the heart of the Sassi, right in the Sasso Caveoso. On the baroque façade there are three niches, inside which there are the statues of St. Paul on the right, St. Peter on the left and in the center the Madonna della Misericordia.
The Church of Purgatory was built in Baroque style and is dedicated to the deceased and deals with the theme of death and the redemption of souls.

About Matera
Matera is a southern Italian city of ancient cave dwellings carved into a ravine, a UNESCO-listed maze of stone houses, rock churches and stepped lanes.
Matera, in the Basilicata region of southern Italy, is built above a deep ravine, and its old districts, the Sassi, are cave houses and stone buildings stacked down the cliff. People have lived here since prehistory, and until the 1950s many families still occupied the caves, before they were moved to new housing. The Sassi were listed by UNESCO in 1993, and the cathedral crowns the rock between the two districts, Sasso Barisano and Sasso Caveoso.
Top-ranked sights in Matera: Sassi di Matera, Murgia National Park (Parco della Murgia Materana), Madonna delle Virtù Church (Chiesa di Madonna delle Virtù).
