  • Chiesa di Santa Sofia
    Travelers will visit the Church of Santa Sofia, an extraordinary monument recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011. Dating back to the 8th century, when Benevento was the capital of the Lombard Duchy, the church is admired for its rare star-shaped plan and unique blend of Lombard and Byzantine architecture. Visitors can admire its original structure, fascinating capitals, and experience the atmosphere of one of the city’s most iconic landmarks.
  • Hortus Conclusus
    Travelers will explore the Hortus Conclusus, the former Dominican garden transformed in the 1990s by artist Mimmo Paladino into an open-air installation. This evocative space combines history, nature, and contemporary art, featuring striking sculptures and symbolic works integrated into the ancient cloister. It is a unique setting where past and present meet, offering visitors a truly immersive cultural experience.
  • Arco di Traiano
    Walking along Corso Garibaldi, the lively heart of Benevento’s historic center, you will reach the impressive Arch of Trajan. Dedicated to Emperor Trajan and symbol of the Via Traiana, an alternative route to the ancient Appian Way, this remarkably preserved monument is admired for its marble reliefs celebrating the greatness of the Roman Empire. A fascinating landmark where the vibrancy of the modern city meets its glorious past.
  • The tour concludes with a visit to the Roman Theatre of Benevento, one of the best-preserved in southern Italy and still a venue for cultural events today. Its grand structure, dating back to the 2nd century AD, offers a glimpse into the city’s ancient splendor.
