Montegiordano, where history and sea meet
Montegiordano emerges as a jewel of the Upper Ionian coast of Cosenza, a center with ancient origins dating back to the 4th century BC. This charming Calabrian village represents a perfect blend of historical heritage, natural beauty, and maritime traditions that continue to live on in its inhabitants.
The Castle of Montegiordano dominates the landscape as an architectural icon of extraordinary value, listed among the prestigious Historic Residences of Calabria. Built by the noble Pignone del Carretto family as a residence for winter stays and hunting expeditions, it has now been transformed into a refined venue for exclusive events.
