Pollutri between history and culture
Among the hills of the Medio Vastese, in the province of Chieti, lies Pollutri. This characteristic village combines architecture, history, and nature. Its origins date back, most likely, to 500 AD, but some archaeological finds testify that the area was inhabited even in pre-Roman times. The history of this small town, which has just over two thousand inhabitants, can be felt at every step. The heart of Pollutri is the fortified village in the highest part of the town, with porticoes, passages, stairways, and alleys. While the facades of the houses were modernized between the 17th and 19th centuries, the cellars and undergrounds retain an ancient, mysterious, and fascinating identity.
Visiting Pollutri
In addition to observing the beauties of the fortified village, visiting Pollutri means admiring many examples of ancient Christian architecture. In Piazza della Chiesa stands the church of the Most Holy Savior, dating back to the 14th century. Abbot Pacichelli, in 1703, also spoke of the existence of a pointed bell tower. Currently, the church features a neo-Romanesque facade. There was also the monastery of San Barbato, founded in 1015, of which the original fountain has been found. The remains of the Church of Santa Lucia, owned by San Barbato, are also visible, near which terracotta votive fragments dating back to the 3rd-1st century BC have been found.
The Bosco di Don Venanzio
In the territory of Pollutri, there is the Bosco di Don Venanzio Nature Reserve, a protected area established in 1999. With its approximately 78 hectares located 5 kilometers from the sea, it is one of the last plain forests on the Adriatic coast. The Bosco offers a solemn and enchanted atmosphere, with a series of river terraces overlooking the Sinello. In Pollutri, nature, tradition, and the present merge in a timeless environment, where ancient arts such as embroidery, lace-making, and bobbin lace still thrive. The cuisine is also typical of the Medio Vastese, with 'ndroccioloni (homemade pasta), the multi-award-winning cold cuts.
