According to the most widely held theory, the city was founded by the Lombards before the 8th century as a fortified camp on the slope of the hill where the castle stands. The original name was Campus vassorum, suggesting that the city was the seat of the vassals of the duke of Spoleto. After the Norman conquest of Southern Italy, Campobasso lost its importance as a defensive stronghold, but became a significant trading and administration centre. The original old town of Campobasso contains the Castello Monforte, although in 1732 the inhabitants built a new town on a lower-level plain. In 1763 the citizens abandoned the old city and settled in the lower valley. The current city was expanded in 1814 by the king of Naples Joachim Murat, and lies on the Campo Basso ("Low field"). Campobasso was the scene of heavy fighting during the Second World War. In the months of October and November 1943 a battle between the German and the Canadian troops for possession of the city caused the destruction of many public buildings, including the City Hall and the archives held there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ♦♦♦📍 𝗠𝗮𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝘂𝗿 📍♦♦♦ https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/3/edi... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🔻 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 🔻 0:00 - Campobasso virtual walking tour starts - Castle Monforte and Church of "St.Mary of the Mountain" 1:23 - WW1 Memorial - every tree branch has its own protector and patron, a soldier who fell in WW1, as a remainder of the tragic losses and suffering of that conflict. 5:34 - St.George church (tour inside) 10:15 - Church of St. Barthelemy 12:20 - Palazzo Japoce 13:11 - Walking in the narrow streets of the city 14:15 - Cute little dog scared by my camera assembly :) 14:39 - ... then he overtakes me :) 14:57 - ...and wants me to stop again )) but friendship wins in the end 24:37 - Via Sant'Antonio Abate 27:50 - Via Marconi 32:23 - Church of St.Leonardo 36:33 - St.Paul Gate 37:23 - Via del Castello 42:52 - Entering the modern part of the city, Square Gabriele Pepe and Holy Trinity Church 47:30 - Victor Emmanuel II Square 49:14 - St.George Palace 51:04 - Musenga Square ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #walkingtour #Campobasso #treadmill #virtualtour #virtual #walking #walk #drone #4k #walks #tour #italy #tours #random #europe
