integrated and systemic development

Past, present, and future of the village of Faito

Located on the top of Mount Faito, one of the most panoramic sites of the Lattari mountains, in Campania, there is a small semi-abandoned village, once a thriving tourist destination and sports resort, built at the beginning of the fifties of the last century in the municipality of Vico Equense. Built to be self-sufficient with a church, garage, theater, farm, residences and hotels, today the village is in a state of severe decay, inconsistent with what the place could offer for its natural beauty.
