Molise’s past history is largely linked to the history of the Samnites. The most popular areas for the visitor are the seaside resorts along the Adriatic, Termoli and Campomarino, and the mountainous zone of Piano Campitello and Capracotta. The modern town of Campobasso lies in the plain, while the ancient part is up on a hill dominated by Monforte Castle. The craftsmen of this region all work
metal, wood, clay and lace with consummate skill. The city of lsernia has the 15th c. 6-arched Fontana Fraterna, and an antiquarium museum, with Greek, Samnite and Roman remains on show. In Termoli, visit the Swabian Castle built in 1247 by Frederick 11, and the 13th century Cathedral.
