The remains of the medieval village on the hill above Paestum, with the sanctuary of the Madonna del Granato.

In the Middle Ages the inhabitants of Paestum left the plain and moved up to the hill, where they founded Capaccio. Of the village, destroyed in the 13th century, the ruins of the castle remain.Nearby stands the sanctuary of the Madonna del Granato, deeply venerated in the area. From the hill the view takes in the plain of Paestum and the sea.
