Description

Set amongst the Lattari mountains), Tramonti was probably founded by the Picentines or the Etruscans and reached its pinnacle during the time of the Marine Republic of Amalfi. Tramonti is known for its many churches, some of which were built by local noble families; nowadays its main focus is the tourism industry, featuring the delights of local food and wine, as well as exploring natural surroundings and towns.

Tramonti contributed to promote the "real" pizza: in fact a lot of Tramonti's pizzaioli opened pizzerie not only in Italy but all over the world; another gastronomic product of Tramonti is the "concerto" (concert), a digestive liqueur invented by the nuns of St. Giuseppe and Teresa Convent.
Flavio Gioia, who perfected the compass, drew his inspiration from the cold wind of Tramonti in order to indicate the "Tramontana" (the north wind).
