In the heart of the Nola plain, Marigliano keeps the mark of its feudal lords: the ducal palace, with cylindrical towers and a park, passed from the Carafa family to the last dukes, remains the identity monument of a town that was an important county of the Kingdom. Around it, the plain of vegetables and orchards that has supplied Naples forever.
The collegiate church and confraternity chapels dot a centre with concrete rhythms. Steps away lie Nola of the Gigli festival and the early-Christian basilicas of Cimitile: Marigliano is the no-frills base for exploring a corner of Campania rich in true history.
