Description

Land between the mountains ("intra montes" in Latin), Tramonti is a wonderful town of the Amalfi coast, set at the foot of the Lattari Mountains and surrounded by a suggestive bucolic landscape consisting of about 145 acres of woods, terraces cultivated with lemon trees, olive trees and vineyards, rich in springs, rivers, picturesque and moving corners in strict contact with nature. It is composed by 13 hamlets, scattered across the small plateaus: Pucara, Novella, Gete, Ponte, Campinola, Corsano, Cesarano, Pietre, Capitignano, Figline, Paterno Sant'Arcangelo, Paterno Sant'Elia, Polvica.
Local historians affirm that the ancient village of Tramonti was founded by the Picentines who were exiled by the Romans after the conquering the coastal areas. During the Middle Age it followed the events of the Ancient Maritime Republic of Amalfi, contributing to the economic and commercial fortune of the coastal town.
In addition to the excellent local wines, produced by authocthonous grapes, characterized by the scents and the aromas of this area, Tramonti is also famous for having contributed to the knowledge of the pizza all over the world, thanks to the natural vocation of its inhabitants for this delicious dish, cooked in their own oven together with bread and toasted bread.

Among the most important sites of Tramonti, we have to mention:
