Badolato is steeped in history dating back to the 11th Century. A French Templar ordered the construction of a fort on the site of Badolato, to watch for Arab incursions by sea. Such hill top towns are ubiquitous in italy and are known as borghi. Two centuries after the founding of Badolota a series of Counts and Barons occupied the fortified village as various feuds continued until 1806. Today the charm of a medieval village can be felt as One meanders the many winding streets and alleys. A spectacular 3 day celebration of Easter is renowned throughout the region
