stemma di Furore

Fiordo di Furore

 Furore  was founded from the Romans and thanks to its geological conformation,  this  village  was never invaded by the Saracen.

It is situated inside the homonymous fjord and there are two villages, one on the sea, the other  on the mountains.

The two villages are connected by a long step, built during the Republic of Amalfi. It has been the only connection from the sea to the mountains, for a long time.

Ponte sul fiordo di Furore

The fjord of Furore we can reach running the S.S. 163 from Amalfi to Positano; after left the “Emerald Cave”, the road slide slowly to the sea; than a tunnel come before this natural wonder. 

To visit...

 Curiosity...__________________

Long time ago the fisher lived the village on the sea, than it was forsaken and today they try to get back this place. We can find the ruin of a paper mill and an old mill.
