The monumental cemetery stands out for its imposing tufa colonnade that dominates the city skyline. The cemetery was built in 1852 on the site of the abandoned Benedictine women’s monastery founded in 980 by Duke Mansone I and dedicated to S. Lorenzo del Piano.<\/p>\n

The cemetery contains the ruins of a medieval chapel with a valuable fresco and a Roman cinerary urn dating back to the 1st century A.D., bearing an inscription between two burning torches sculpted in high relief.<\/p>\n

It can be reached in two ways: by means of very convenient public elevators <\/a> that can be accessed from Piazza Municipio and that allow you to reach the top in a minute, or by taking a walk through the path consisting of about 400 steps, a choice, however, that is not recommended for people who are “untrained,” but a decidedly fascinating and unique option for those who feel ready for the climb. Along the way, you will be surrounded by the typical, authentic Amalfi setting, made up of narrow streets, panoramic views at different heights and characteristic corners.<\/p>\n

The cemetery is open on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 8 a.m. to noon. The afternoon opening varies according to the season, from October 1 to April 30 the hours are from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. (excluding Sundays), and from May 1 to September 30 from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. (excluding Sundays).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
