Miglionico: a village suspended in time

The origins of Miglionico date back to the era of the Lucanians, but it was under the Normans and the Swabians that the village reached its peak. Walking through its narrow alleys and stone squares feels like stepping back in time, immersed in a perfectly preserved medieval atmosphere.

With our taxi service from Matera, you can reach Miglionico comfortably and experience the magic of its historic center without worrying about driving or parking.

The Castle of Malconsiglio: symbol of Miglionico

The most famous monument in Miglionico is undoubtedly the Castle of Malconsiglio. Built during the Norman era and expanded by Frederick II of Swabia, it is renowned for hosting the Barons' Conspiracy in 1485—one of the most dramatic episodes in the history of the Kingdom of Naples.

Visiting the Castle means retracing the historical events that shaped the destiny of Basilicata and all of Southern Italy. From its terraces, you can also enjoy a spectacular view of the surrounding valley.

With Taxi Service Matera, you can arrange a guided tour of the Castle to uncover every detail of this fascinating place.

• Historic palaces, bearing witness to the Lucanian nobility.

Every corner of Miglionico tells a story, and visiting it means taking a journey through art, faith, and tradition.
