The stronghold of Tommaso d'Aquino guarding the mouth of the Suessola valley. Tradition tells of a tunnel dug to join it to the castle of Acerra: that, they say, is what brought the western flank down.

Eremo di San Michele Arcangelo a Palombara
San Felice a Cancello (CE)
A hermitage clinging to a spur of rock, founded — so they say — in 862 by the Lombard prince Landone after a victory over Naples. All around, opened tombs, walls of houses that are gone, and a spring that has never run dry.
