The monument, in fact, maintains almost intact its charm as an ancient architectural giant, in full harmony with the historic village and surrounding landscape. The first construction, dating back to the Norman era, probably dates back to the 12th century. At this stage it was equipped with a tower and a trapezoidal wall circuit. During the 15th century, the castle was completely rebuilt, enlarging the walls and equipping it with three circular, crenellated towers with a scarp base, thus outlining the final layout of the imposing military fortress. The walls were equipped with a patrol walkway and housings for arquebuses and cannons.

Civitacampomarano is a small village inhabited by about 250 people, which has become the most colourful open-air museum in Italy, thanks to the walls of its houses housing the works of the most famous international street artists.

The eighth edition of the 'Cvtà Street Fest', invented and directed by Alice Pasquini, is planned for 2023. As every year, the signs of the stories that the various artists have left and will continue to leave on the walls of Civitacampomarano are interwoven with the stories of local traditions;

Free lunch (a light lunch is recommended; a fish dinner is planned for the evening);

In the afternoon, departure from Roccavivara at 16:00 with destination Termoli for a magical afternoon stroll through the medieval village of ancient Termoli among the alleys and small squares of a marvellous seaside village, surrounded by the sea.
