Map of the Province


The Province of Crotone gathers all the typical elements of nature and Mediterranean civilization from
the blue waters of the Jonian sea to the remains of the ancient populations who landed on these coasts,
from the dry landscape sloping down towards the sea to the feudal aristocracy of the presilan villages
and the green scenery of the Silan forest.

The sea, the mountain and a naturalistic wealth, still unpolluted, saw the birth of the most ancient
cultures, and Magna Grecia knew its greatness along these coasts. A magic land, then, which over the
centuries has been home to Greeks, Byzantines, Romans, Normans, Swabians, Angevins and Bourbons.
These populations left traces of their civilization in the castles and the towers built along the coast of the
Province. Today these castles and towers are used for cultural purposes.

Since Pythagoras’ times this land has been known not only for its healthy climate but also for its rich
natural beauty. Its coastline is considered the largest Italian marine reserve, its highest mountains are part
of the National Park of Calabria while on its hills there are naturalistic oases of rare beauty.
