The town of Benevento, 40 miles northeast
of Naples, has a rich and complex history stretching
back even before Rome. Benevento became an
important colony of the Roman Empire, thanks
to the Appian Way the Romans constructed through
here to get to Brindisi and sail to Greece
and to the East. On your guided tour, you will
see a very well preserved Roman Theater (still
in use) and the Arch of Traian, probably the
best arch ever made by the Romans for celebrating
an emperor. The Church of St. Sofia is an impressive
memory of the Middle Ages, when Benevento was
ruled by the German Longobards. Another interesting
site you can visit here is the Museo del Sannio,
a museum rich in pre-Roman archaeology.
