| Area Information |
The Hotel Is Located In The Country Of Dragoni
*caserta*, A Particularly Healthy By Quiet Area.
Dragoni Is About 29 Km From The Town Of Caserta
Standing On The Fertile Plain Crossed By The
River Volturno, Not Far From The Old Medieval
Village Of Casertavecchia From Which It Takes Its
Name. In Fact, Casertavecchias Origins Date From
Lombard Times, When The Village Was Founded In
The Foothills Of The Tifatini Mountains. Already
A Bishopric In The Tenth Century, Becoming An
Important Place Under The Normans And Then The
Swabians, Its Central Position Was Diminished
From 1752 Onwards, When Charles Iii Bourbon
Ordered Work To Begin On The Construction Of The
Royal Residence, A Sumptuous Palace, Around Which
The New Centre Began To Develop, Above All, From
The Second Half Of The Nineteenth Century.
Intense Building, Without Pause Since The End Of
The Second World War, Has Given The Town A
Modern, Regular Layout, In Which The Many
Churches Stand Out The Cathedral Dedicated To
Our Lady Of The Annunciation, The Chapel Of St.
John The Baptist, The Monastic Complex Of St.
Augustine, Together With The Luxurious Noble
Houses - The Palazzi Paterno, Vecchio And Al
Boschetto. The Nearby Village Of S. Leucio Is
Also Very Interesting, Destined To Become A
Settlement With Autonomous Statute Under
Ferdinand Iv Of Bourbon. Only A Part Of The
Ambitious Ferdinandopoli Project Was Achieved,
However, With The Creation Of The Royal Silk
Factory. The Economy Of The Caserta Area Is
Mainly Based On Tourism - Connected With The
Royal Palace And Its Lovely Gardens - On
Agriculture And On Its Related Activities, Such
As The Production Of Pasta, The Sugar, Dairy, And
Conserves Industry, The Metallurgical And
Mechanical, Textile And Glass Sectors Are
Emerging. Among The Towns Main Events Are Shows
And Concerts At The Palace, The National Horse
Competition, And September In The Village A
Theatrical, Ballet And Musical Festival.
On The Fertile Capua Plain, In The Place Where
Modern Caserta Stands, Stood Capua, One Of The
Most Powerful And Flourishing Cities Of The
Ancient World. The City, Perhaps Founded By The
Oscans In About 850 Bc, Was Then Conquered By The
Etruscans, Becoming The Capital Of Their
Confederation In Campania, Taking On A Role Of
Prime Political And Economic Importance. Famous
For Its Excellent Artistic Earthenware, Bronze
And Ironwork, As Well As For Carpet Weaving, In
Which It Competed With Alexandria In Egypt, The
City, Conquered By The Samnites In 438 Bc *or In
424 Bc*, Seeking Protection From The Dangerous
Attacks Of The Sannio Mountain People, Requested
Alliance With Rome, Who Intervened In Its
Defence. Definitively Romanised During The First
Century Bc, It Became A Haughty Rome In The
Words Of Cicero And Was Still At The Beginning Of
The Fourth Century Ad One Of The Most Flourishing
Cities In The Roman Empire. Subsequently
Devastated By Genserics Vandals In 456 Ad, And
Finally Attacked By The Saracens In 841 Ad, The
City Was Definitively Abandoned By Its
Inhabitants, Who Sought Refuge In The Ruins Of
Ancient Casilinum - Where On A Stretch Of The
Volturno, Once Stood A Small River Port, - And
Founded Present Day Capua. On The Site Of The Old
City, Where Only A Few Ruins And Some Churches
Remained That Had Survived The Destruction, Rose
The Small Village Of Santa Maria Capua Vetere.
The Modern City, One Of The Liveliest In The
Province Of Caserta, Preserves Remarkable
Evidence Of Its Past, Such As The Remains Of The
Campanian Amphitheatre, Material Housed In The
Local Archaeological Museum, The Shrine Of
Mithras, The Cryptoporticus, Hadrians Arch, And
Two Mausoleums, Also From The Roman Period
