Ferrandina, Italian comune

Description

Ferrandina is a commune located in the province of Matera in the Basilicata region of southern Italy. The settlement sits on hillside terrain with narrow streets and stone buildings characteristic of inland southern Italian villages, featuring traditional residential structures built close together.

History

The commune developed during medieval times as a settlement in the Basilicata region and was shaped over centuries as part of southern Italy's inland territories. Its growth followed patterns typical of rural communities that established agricultural practices and local governance systems.

Practical
