Castelluccio Superiore
Inhabitants: 847
Altitude: 680 m above s.l.
It was founded in Middle Age, and it originally made one single feud together with Castelluccio Inferiore. The two were split once and for all in 1813. Interesting from an archaeological perspective are Petruzzolo and Foresta. The 17th century Mother Church of S. Margherita is splendid, but throughout the town and its surroundings there are many other evocative religious buildings. A honorable mention goes to historic buildings such as Pizzo and La Grotta. There are many religious festivals that liven up the community, such as the one of the Madonna del Soccorso, on Mount Zaccana, where one can taste fresh pasta, sweets, cold meats and roasted chestnuts
