    The place is in a very central place, you get to truly experience the old town of Matera, and once you learn how to navigate in the area (not an easy task...) you find out it is in 5-min walking distance from many of the interesting places to see.

    Location is great! The host was very kind, smiley and helpful, even when I had requested check-in time change for four times straight in the arrival day, due to flight delays.😄

Sassi di Matera
Casa Vetere è situata nel cuore dei Sassi di Matera,patrimonio UNESCO. Soggiornerete in appartamenti restaurati e arredati nei minimi particolari ed in armonia con l'architettura circostante. Costruita nel 1500 e restaurata nel 1998 Casa Vetere è situata in un contesto antico fatto di colori, silenzi e profumi che vi riporteranno indietro nel tempo. A pochi metri troverete disponibili ristoranti, pizzerie, bracerie, caffetterie, tisanerie ecc. Che dire.....venite e vedrete!
I Sassi di Matera sono un insediamento urbano derivante dalle varie forme di civilizzazione ed antropizzazione succedutesi nel tempo. Da quelle preistoriche dei villaggi trincerati del periodo neolitico, all'habitat della civiltà rupestre di matrice orientale (IX-XI secolo), che costituisce il sostrato urbanistico dei Sassi, con i suoi camminamenti, canalizzazioni, cisterne; dalla civitas di matrice occidentale normanno-sveva (XI-XIII secolo), con le sue fortificazioni, alle successive espansioni rinascimentali (XV-XVI secolo) e sistemazioni urbane barocche (XVII-XVIII secolo); ed infine dal degrado igienico-sociale del XIX e della prima metà del XX secolo allo sfollamento disposto con legge nazionale negli anni cinquanta, fino all'attuale recupero iniziato a partire dalla legge del 1986.Oggi patrimonio UNESCO.
