Roseto Capo Spulico, Coastal commune in Province of Cosenza, Italy

Roseto Capo Spulico stands at 217 meters above sea level, featuring a combination of coastal views and mountain landscapes along the Tarentine Gulf.

The town originated as a satellite city of Sybaris during Magna Graecia, with its castle, Castrum Petrae Roseti, constructed in 1260 marking its golden period.

The name derives from the local rose cultivation, where petals were collected and used to fill mattresses according to regional traditions.

The municipality offers various accommodation options near its beaches, with direct access to transportation routes connecting to major cities in Calabria.

The Church of the Immaculate Conception, built in the 15th century, sits on a cliff edge, offering views across the surrounding territory.
