Nola lies in the south of Naples, in an area that is only 30 minutes far from major cities like Naples, Caserta, Avellino, Salerno and Benevento. In addition to this, it is very easy to reach important historical tourist attractions of famous ancient cities like Pompeii and Ercolano.
Apart from its natural beauties, which characterize our coastal towns famous all over the world, our territory has a rich local history of art, colorful traditions, and popular festivals, and, let us not forget, our world famous culinary specialities.

Nola's historical religious background is evident in the many church frescoes and magnificent neo-Renaissance Cathedral. What's more, it is well-known for being the hometown to Giordano Bruno, a great 16th-century philosopher, mathematician and poet, and birthplace of St. Felice, Nola's patron saint. Another important historic figure is St. Paolino from Bordeaux, who invented the church bell and presided as bishop of Nola in the 5th century. Thanks to his heroic act of freeing Nolans from slavery, every year in June, the town celebrates the so-called “Festa dei Gigli”, in honor of St. Paolino, a lively traditional festival full of music and dancing that draws crowds of people from all over the world. UNESCO recognized this local festival as a Human Heritage in 2013
