Accompanied by a licensed local guide, you will explore the city’s most iconic sites: the Monumental Complex of Santa Sofia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with its rare Lombard architecture; the evocative Hortus Conclusus, an ancient Dominican garden transformed into an open-air museum by Maestro Mimmo Paladino; the lively Corso Garibaldi leading to the majestic Arch of Trajan, symbol of the Via Traiana; and the ancient Roman Theatre, one of the best preserved in Southern Italy. Beyond monuments, Benevento unveils its mysterious soul through tales of the Janare witches, pagan rituals and traditions linked to the famous Premio Strega literary award.
