Rivello is a medieval village with great charm, in a very scenic position overlooking a valley situated in the Basilicata region of southern Italy.
From the artistic point of view, Rivello is a mix of Latin, Lombard and Byzantine culture, a result of the town being occupied at the same time by both the Lombards and the Byzantines. On the one hand there are the churches of St. Nicholas, Santa Barbara and St. Michael “dei Greci”, which were influenced by the Byzantines and on the other hand, there is the Latin church of Santa Maria Maggiore.
Rivello has an old town characterized by stairs, squares, and narrow streets. Despite being only a small mountain village, Rivello is rich in works of art, which are largely preserved in the churches and other religious monuments in Rivello and which will be the focus of a visit. Firstly, from the historical center head along Via Vigliarola to find the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo, a small rural temple which comes with the counter-wooden ceiling of the 18th century.
