About Casoria

Art, faith and Campanian life next to Naples

Welcome to Visit Casoria.com, an independant Travel guide using the "Visit" branding style adopted by more and more private Tourist Guides, marketing-savvy Hotel organisations or official Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Casoria is a town where history feels close and familiar, shaped by its religious traditions, its place in the Naples metropolitan area and a surprising passion for contemporary art.

It grew from a rural settlement on the plain north-east of Naples into one of the most populous towns of the metropolitan city, closely linked to its patron saint, San Mauro Abate, whose basilica stands at the heart of the town. For centuries churches, small squares and family workshops defined its rhythm, while Naples and Vesuvius remained always in view. Today the CAM Casoria Contemporary Art Museum gives the town an international profile with its exhibitions and committed projects. Few towns around Naples combine local devotion and modern art so naturally.

Modern Casoria blends this heritage with a busy, welcoming atmosphere. Its markets, pastry shops and shopping streets offer a taste of everyday Campanian life, while Naples, Pompeii and the Bay are only a short trip away. Religious festivals and cultural events add to its character. Casoria is a place where tradition meets contemporary creativity, where faith shapes the calendar, and where the energy of Naples is always nearby.
