Patron saint festival In 79 days
Feast of Saint Anterus
📅 Every year, on 3 January
On 3 January Casalbuono celebrates its patron Pope Saint Anterus; the town preserves the Palazzo Baronale and lies within the Cilento National Park.
The village was born in the thirteenth century as a fief of the abbey of Santa Maria di Cadossa: its lord was an abbot, and his subjects were a hundred families. In 1514 a bull of Leo X passed it to the charterhouse of Padula, so it stayed monastic property.
Until 1862 it was called Casalnuovo, the new hamlet: a royal decree made it Casalbuono, the good hamlet. It stands at over six hundred metres, shut in between the Gioncolo and the monte Difesa, and the Calore Lucano runs through it.
