Bell Tower of Cellino Attanasio

Highlight • Monument

The Bell Tower of Santa Maria la Nova – once a medieval defense tower

This striking square bell tower was originally not a church tower at all. Its robust base is in fact a 13th-century defense tower that once formed part of the first fortifications of Cellino Attanasio. Only later did the tower acquire a religious function and was converted into the campanile of the adjacent church.

Look closely at the sturdy, sloping base: it still betrays its original military function. Above it, you can see the elegant additions from later centuries, such as the decorative arches and the open bell storey in typical Abruzzese style.

Fun fact: a memorial plaque has been placed in the outer wall in memory of the inhabitants of Cellino Attanasio who died during the First World War. This makes this tower not only a historical monument but also a place of remembrance.

Viewpoint over Cellino Attanasio – a panorama that leaves you speechless

From this viewpoint, the westernmost point of the medieval fortified village, a beautiful panorama unfolds over the rolling hills of Abruzzo. It is the ideal place to catch your breath and enjoy the tranquility.

Cellino Attanasio is located on a hilltop at an altitude of 443 meters, between the Vomano and Piomba rivers. In clear weather, the view ranges from the Adriatic Sea to the imposing peaks of the Gran Sasso. A perfect stop for a photo and to realize why this authentic village has had such a strategic location for centuries.
