Policoro, a jewel nestled in the province of Matera in Basilicata, Italy, is a city that enchants with its artistic and cultural wealth. The beating heart of Policoro's art is the National Museum of Siritide, guardian of archaeological finds that tell the ancient history of Magna Graecia, attracting enthusiasts and scholars. Its exhibition halls are a journey through time, where pottery, jewelry, and ancient sculptures whisper age-old secrets.
No less fascinating is the archaeological area of Heraclea, once a Greek city of extraordinary importance, now a site of invaluable worth with its monumental remains standing as silent witnesses to a glorious past. Here, the ancient Greek theater, with its perfect acoustics, continues to amaze and serves as a venue for cultural events that unite history and performance.
Policoro is not just history, but also contemporary art. The local art galleries offer a showcase for emerging and established artists, creating a vibrant dialogue between past and present.
