What's Around Benevento

Benevento is a small city in the heart of southern Italy, rich in history and character. Founded over 2,000 years ago, it still carries visible traces of its past: Roman monuments like the Arch of Trajan and the Roman Theatre, medieval streets, churches, and quiet piazzas where life moves at a slower pace.

It's not a big tourist hub, which means visitors often experience a more authentic side of Italy: local cafés, family-run restaurants, and a relaxed atmosphere.

One important thing to know: Benevento is inland, so there's no seaside nearby. However, the great advantage of its location is that many of the most beautiful places in southern Italy are easily reachable for a day trip.

Here are a few destinations you might enjoy exploring while you're in the area:
