| Matera is a city located on a rocky outcrop in Basilicata, southern Italy. It includes the Sassi area, a complex of cave dwellings carved into the mountainside. Evacuated in 1952 due to the poor living conditions, the Sassi now house museums such as the Casa Grotta di Vico Solitario, with period furniture and handcrafted utensils. One of the nearby cave churches is Santa Lucia alle Malve, with 13th-century frescoes. A glimpse of the rooftops of Matera and the surrounding arid area in the background. |
