Pisticci rises in the central-southern part of the province of Matera and extends between the rivers Basento, and Cavone.<\/strong>The territory is composed of several villages, including Marconia<\/strong>, Pisticci Scalo<\/strong> and Marina di Pisticci<\/strong>. The hills on which the old town is located, are in the west part, where the clay soil is characterized by deep grooves, the badlands.<\/strong>. In the eastern part of the territory, however, there is a plateau that slopes gently towards the Metaponto plain and the 8 km of coast. Given its strategic position, it is called “Il balcone sullo Jonio”(the balcony on the Ionian Sea).<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

THINGS NOT TO MISS<\/h3>\n

Terravecchia<\/strong>
It is the highest and oldest part of the town from which in 1688 the current district Dirupo collapsed. Here are located the Castle, the ancient door of the village, the Mother Church, the Church of the Annunziata, several noble palaces and the tower of the aqueduct of Agri, of the Fascist era.<\/p>\n

Dirupo<\/strong>
Formerly called Casalnuovo, it later took its name from the disastrous landslide of 1688, on the ruins of which it was built. It\u2019s characterized by lammies, typical white houses lined with simple and spontaneous architecture.<\/p>\n

L\u2019Abbazia del Casale (abbey)<\/strong>
It was presumably built around 1087 on the ruins of an ancient Greek-Byzantine monastery by Rodolfo Maccabeo and Emma d’Altavilla. The abbey was one of the shrines of the Jubilee of 2000.<\/p>\n

The Mother Church<\/strong>
It stands on the remains of a pre-existing church of 1212, of which remains the bell tower with two orders of mullioned windows. The current building was finished in 1542, with the construction of two other naves in addition to that of the previous church, The church is of Romanesque-Renaissance style.<\/p>\n

The Church of the Immacolata Concezione<\/strong>
Small church built around the sixteenth century. It has a Latin cross plan and a wooden ceiling with a ship\u2019s hull, painted in tempera with floral decorations and holy figures. The altar is in baroque style.<\/p>\n

The \u201cCalanchi\u201d<\/strong>
Extraordinary landscape and naturalistic heritage, the gullies (Calanchi), geological conformations of clay, take the form of real sculptures of great suggestion, from those to “knife blade” up to the “biancane”. Lately, they are home to audio-visual productions.<\/p>\n

Piazza Elettra in Marconia<\/strong>
Built in 1940, Piazza Elettra is an example of “rural square” of the fascist period and, therefore, respectful of the canons indicated by the regime, with a porticoed space the Littoria Tower, the municipal house, the post office, etc.<\/p>\n

The Castle of San Basilio<\/strong>
It was built as a fortified farm around the 7th century by the monastic community of Basilians. It then became a Norman feud, increasingly assuming the characteristics of a castle with the construction of the central tower. It was later donated by the Norman feudal lords to the Benedictine community of the abbey of Santa Maria del Casale in Pisticci.<\/p>\n

The archaeological site of the Incoronata<\/strong>
It is a hilly area on the right bank of the Basento where the remains of a village dating back to the 9th century B.C. and of a later phase Greek built over the previous village have emerged. You can now visit the remains of the town, while the objects and various finds found in the surrounding area are exhibited at the National Archaeological Museum of Metaponto.<\/p>\n

The golden beaches of the Ionian Sea<\/strong>
Along the coast you will encounter the wild landscapes of Marina di Pisticci. From the mouth of the Basento, where the Porto Degli Argonauti is located, to that of the Cavone, a very long sandy carpet of the beaches of San Basilio, San Teodoro and Macchia is explored.<\/p>\n

GASTRONOMIC EXCELLENCE<\/h3>\n

The traditional cuisine is typical of the South: simple dishes of the peasant tradition with homemade pasta, vegetables and pork from which sausages and soppressate are produced. Thetypical pasta<\/strong> is represented by “l tappar\u00e9dd<\/strong>” (diamond-shaped), “l rucch\u00ebl\u00eb<\/strong>” (concave dumplings), “l tagghiari\u00e9dd<\/strong>” (“tagliolini”), grilled macaroni and orecchiette<\/strong>, with sauces. \u201cTagliolini\u201d and \u201cruccoli\u201d are also suitable for dishes with cooked vegetables: \u201cruccoli\u201d with turnip tops, while \u201ctagliolini\u201d are good with chickpeas, beans or peas. Typical vegetables are broad beans and chicory (\u201cfaf and ciuqu\u00e8r\u00eb\u201d),\u201dlambasci\u00f9n\u201d (onions). The typical Christmas sweets are the“pettole”<\/strong>, the “\u2018ngartagghiat”<\/strong> (“cartellate”), the “purc\u00ebdduzz\u00eb”<\/strong> (“porcellini”)<\/p>\n
