Abbazia del Santo Salvatore + Telesia
San Salvatore Telesino (BN)
Set in the plain of the Sannio, the Benedictine abbey of Santo Salvatore gathers the finds of ancient Telesia, the Roman and Samnite city abandoned after earthquakes and raids, and never risen again.
- History & archaeology
Scavi di Telesia
San Salvatore Telesino (BN)
On the plain where the Calore meets the Volturno, almost three kilometres of Roman walls and an amphitheatre dug into a hollow tell of Samnite Telesia, still largely buried.
- Nature & hiking
Parco del Grassano
San Salvatore Telesino (BN)
Springs surfacing at the foot of Monte Pugliano fill a river of clear, cold waters, green as glass, where the canoe glides through dense vegetation.
