Avigliano, Medieval town in Basilicata, Italy.

Located at an elevation of 827 meters, Avigliano extends across multiple peaks including Mount Caruso, Mount Carmine, and Mount Saint Angelo in Potenza province.

Archaeological evidence confirms Avigliano's existence during Medieval times, with some historical records suggesting a foundation by the Sabellians in the 15th century.

The town maintains strong connections to its agricultural heritage through seasonal festivals celebrating local products and traditional farming methods throughout the year.

The Avigliano Città-Avigliano railway line provides regular connections to surrounding municipalities, making it accessible for residents and visitors from nearby regions.

The Castel Lagopesole, constructed by Saracens and expanded by Normans, stands as a testament to the architectural evolution of different civilizations.
