Domicella

Province of Avellino, Region Campania, Italy

The centre of the town is located on the top of a hill, surrounded by mountains rich of vineyards, chest-nut trees and nut woods. The name of the town comes from the Latin word "domus", followed by the diminutive suffix "cella" which means "little house". Its origin goes back to Roman times, even if the existence of an inhabited area was documented only in the Middle Ages when it was a hamlet belonging to the Lauro fiefdom. Very charming is the old town center with its medieval narrow lanes, where beautiful old portals can be admired.
