It was built in mid 20th century by Guerino Galzerano, called “the architect” – a local farmer who collected pebbles from sea’s shores or from river’s banks.

The house is located in the center of Castelnuovo Cilento, an ancient medieval village dating back to the 10th century, in the heart of Cilento National Park, 280 meters above sea level. The village, located on the top of a hill, has a dominant position and an astonishing view over the Alento Valley and the Cilento’s Coast.

He made the home more comfortable and welcoming but at the same time Francesco preserved its artistic identity and its original style.
