Description

Get ready to discover the places of a true story of medieval conspiracy, the “conspiracy of the barons”, set in the castle of a magnificent ancient village: Miglionico, near Matera, a beautiful village perched on the top of a hill. But let’s go in order: the experience will begin with an immersion in the art visible in the charming village, in particular with a visit to the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, and will continue for a piece of ancient walls, with a belvedere and a breathtaking view of Lake San Giuliano.

After the guided tour, we will finally reach the majestic Malconsiglio Manor, theater of the famous conspiracy hatched by the Barons of Southern Italy behind the Aragonese. Just to anticipate what awaits you, during that dinner long time ago, that room became the scene of a sudden and great massacre … but by whom? Reproduced with a multimedia exhibition with which to relive, in the guise of a baron, in the first person, the dinner with crime in which Ferdinand I of Aragon participated. It will be an exciting and profound experience.

In addition, on request, it is also possible to visit the Abbey of Montescaglioso, and returning to Matera also the Crypt of the Original Sin. The experience in this extra-long format lasts 7 hours instead of about 3, and includes free lunch in the middle of the day.
