***𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆***
The origin of the village is linked to the need of the populations who lived on the Gulf of Gaeta to move to new settlements in a protected position on the surrounding hills, to defend against Saracen raids. Maranola is mentioned for the first time in 1029 and again in 1045, when it is indicated as castrum, a place fortified with walls and towers. In 1041 the existence of a “via carraria de Maranola” is also attested.
Under the Caetani a new wall with three towers was then built, the only access to which was the so-called “ravellino”, demolished at the end of the 19th century. The village was placed under siege in 1347 by Nicola Caetani as part of the clashes conducted to regain Mola, Castellone and Traetto. His son, Onorato I Caetani, had a castle built there which took from him the name of “Castello Onorato”. In April 1400 it was besieged by the troops of Ladislao I of Naples.
In the 15th century it had the status of a *university* and the statute states that it included the hamlets of Mamurrano, Ponzanello and Trivio in its territory. In 1414 the property was sold to Pietro Origlia, count of Caiazzo, but Cristoforo Caetani took it back by force. In 1428 it became an autonomous municipality together with a quarter of the territory of Maranola.
In 1491 it was in possession of Caterina Pignatelli, in 1504 by Prospero Colonna and in 1691 it passed to the Carafa, who kept it until the abolition of feudalism in 1806.
****Additional Info****
Maranola is also famous for its *Festival of Environmental Arts* / “Seminaria” and its *Living Cribs*.
The first, which invites international artists to dialogue with the small village of Maranola and its inhabitants, developing new projects through a period of residency with immersive and multimedia installations, performances, interactive works, video projections, murals, sculptures and other forms of contemporary art.
The second, the *Living Cribs*, takes place every year on December 26th and January 1st and 6th Maranola is transformed into a nativity scene. The doors of the houses open, the old mills shine again, the ancient crafts come back to life.

Thank you for showing more of the surrounding territory in your flyover – also love the music you choose for your drone footage – classy.
Wow, it's a historical city. Looks very beautiful with the mountains. Thank you for share with us. Stay safe. Greetings from Germany.
Big Like! Great Virtual Tour! 😊😊👍👍 AWESOME!

Awesome place for a walk!!
So many stairs, so few handrails. Is it because of the aesthetics of the old towns that they use very few safety rails? Or is everyone young and spry.
Beauty doesn't necessarily come from the very young or the very new. Here in North America it's hard to convince people of that. This town that you have so beautifully captured is so typical of the aged beauty that greets us around every turn in the ancient towns and villages of Italy. It feels like Civita! Someone once described Venice as a city of elegant decay, and I would characterize most of Italy like that. But it isn't meant to be negative at all. Small areas of crumbling stone may break away, but they leave behind steadfast stone that is strong enough to last another 100 years. The patchwork of colors on the weathered walls tell a story of centuries of vibrant life. In the silent streets there are the voices of Kings and lords and ladies who shopped for their daily meat and vegetables, and paraded their finest clothing for the peasants to envy. Italy is awash in towns like this, full of treasure. But it isn't the treasure of coin and silver. Every stone in the road and archway above your head is a treasure to discover. And long after the commoners and nobility have passed on, these walls remain.
You do beautiful work, and you should be reminded of that each and every time you achieve that result. The present ain't so nice right now. So here we can wander the past for an hour and know that the hardships these people of the past endured were eventually overcome, just as we will overcome ours.
Did I hear a chicken at about 23:00?
I walk with fun. It’s always a fun walk.
من آن رندم كه عصيان پيشه دارم
بدستى جام بدستى تيشه دارم
اگر تو بى گناهى رو ملك شو
كه من ازحوا وآدم ريشه دارم
Bonito e interesante pueblo costero con sus calles limpias, empedradas y casas antiguas con doble ventana🙂
Gracias Riccardo por compartir y viajar contigo, ojalá pudieras subir un video de Cinque Terre, saludos🇲🇽
hello friend, its always feel good to see your wonderful journey. i hope to visit places like this someday.
The drone footage is amazing. Beautiful views. Thanks again for taking us on another incredible virtual tour. I am always interested in the history of these places. I love the old buildings from different time periods and the fact that they are still preserved and maintained in our modern world. I am sure inside the churches are beautiful as well.
I am curious to know if you have ever visited Pompeii and Herculaneum before and if so what was the experience like for you?
Don't mistake it with Manarola (cinque terre) 😄!
Amazingly beautiful town , view towards Gaeta is marvellous , perfect place for Artistic events . Nicely made video . Best wishes for the channel .
Gracias Riccardo me daría mucho gusto que visitaras los cuatro pueblos costeros faltantes de Cinque Terre con tantos siglos de antigüedad y encanto, ya que es la única forma que tengo de viajar fuera de mí país, hasta pronto. 🇲🇽
Wow! If it wasn't for the rendering of some walls and seeing some cars and scooters, you'd think that you were walking in mediaeval times. (You'd have to be dressed in the style of those times too). Love the narrow cobblestone lanes, the niches in the walls for the statues. Keep walking and finding these beautiful places to share.😊🚶
Beautiful city surrounded by lovely mountains and sea..woow..awsme place for walking tour..just loved it..thanks
Disfruto mucho tus videos, de verdad que me transporto a esos lugares maravillosos que nos permites conocer. Este video es particularmente hermoso. Gracias y te felicito porque lo que hacer es sencillamente genial.
So many wonderful villages and hill towns in Lazio not so far from Rome! Can’t wait to get back! As always your video footage and info is outstanding. Out of curiosity: did you use only the DJI Pocket 2 during the walk? Any added equipment to further stabilize the device? Thanks a million for sharing this amazing content to your subscribers!👏👍
Nice ❤️
Loved you cat friend following you around a little 😻
Another beautiful town!
Quite a surprise to find this video. I have been to Maranola only once when I was a teenager and it was by coincidence. Splendid to be able to relive some of it.
❤
After watching hundreds of videos of Italy, its not surprising that millions of them went to the new world risking their own lives to start in a new land where land was plentiful and space in abundance. How can people live like that? The topography is very nice and the ancient ruins are interesting, but wow…people living in such tight quarters is really quite depressing to watch.
This is also useful to relax oneself
Purtroppo dal drone si può vedere quanto male ha fatto l'abusivismo al nostro paese
Thanks for peaking over that garden wall at the end.
To have a garden enclosed by a stone wall in Italia…….
WHAT A BIG TURN OFF! A BARKING DOG! I WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE RIGHT THERE WHERE THAT DOG IS…I'D BE LOOKING FOR THE OWNER & HAVING A LITTLE TALK WITH THEM…VERY RUDE & ANNOYING…NEVER LEAVE YOUR DOG BARKING, WHILST YOU GO OUT, FOR OTHERS TO HAVE TO LISTEN TO…THAT'S VERY SOCIOPATHIC & IGNORANT…BUT, LOVE YOUR WALKING TOURS…NOT YOUR FAULT, FOR SOMEONE'S BEHAVIOR…;)
WHEN YOU GOT TO PIAZZA DEL MAGGIORE, A RAINBOW HAPPENED IN YOUR PATHWAY…AND AT 35:18 MIN.MARK, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PAINTWORTHY IMAGE SO FAR…WOW!…ONE COULD SIT THERE & PAINT THAT SCENE…;)
34:45 ,и 41:32 Я искала это видео,и нашла!!! это сообщение в виде таблички на стене.,напишите, пожалуйста,почему написано на русском языке ?это удивительно, ведь это Италия.!
You got the spelling wrong: it's Manarola.
