A visit to Soleto is best started in the old historic centre (La Gorà), where the narrow streets are at right angles to each other and cover a square area of over 6 hectares, bordered by the Raimondello Orsini ring road. In the streets, stately houses from the 15th and 16th centuries stand side by side with rare late Gothic elements, Baroque portals and buildings that recall what was once an exemplary urban context. Often precious details are preserved in the form of a decoration, frieze, architrave, inscription or crests, which testify to the presence of important families. In the historic centre of the town of Soleto, there is still a rich collection of noble houses with a sober Renaissance elegance, alongside baroque portals and buildings.
The buildings include:
- Palazzo Orsini with family crest (standing bear on the right).
Noble town house from the late 18th century, owned by the wealthy Del Balzo Orsini family. The building in the historic centre is a noble building par excellence and has all the characteristics of a valuable old town house with star vaults and load-bearing walls of thick tuff. Through the entrance you enter a hall, the floor of which is decorated with the noble crest of the Orsini family. On the first floor there are eleven rooms, some of which have frescoes on the vaults. There is also an altar here where the family's religious services took place. A mezzanine has been added, bringing the total surface area of the entire building to approximately 400 m². Near the building is the small church of Santa Sofia and Santo Stefano, dating back to the 14th century. Thanks to its exceptional value, this town house represents the characteristics of a unique and exclusive property.
