In Fiumefreddo Bruzio, admire architectural masterpieces that hold stories of former Saracen, Norman and Moorish residents. Indulge in the flavours of southern Italy at traditional trattorias and taverns. The origins of Fiumefreddo Bruzio date back to the 10th century. Its name is a derivation of the Latin words flumen frigidum (cold river), which refer to the springs that flow from the cliffs. The historic centre is a delightful labyrinth of zigzagging alleys lined with ancient palaces and leading to squares. Facing Piazza Osanna is the austere Pignatelli Palace, noted for its picturesque courtyard. The 16th-century Zupi Palace has unbeatable views from its loggia. Gaze over rolling hills, along the Calabrian coastline and out toward the island of Sicily. Dedicate time to visit the collection of preserved churches, including the elegantly furnished Church of Santa Chiara. See the tombs of the noble Mendoza family at the Church of San Francesco di Paola. Browse frescoes by Salvatore Fiume at the Church of San Rocco. Marvel at Francesco Solimena’s *The Miracle of St. Nicholas of Bari* at the Church of Madre di Santa Maria ad Adnexis. Rest a while at squares such as Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Europa. Satisfy your taste buds on typical Calabrian dishes infused with basil, rosemary, peppers, onion and garlic. Popular dishes include a local soft cheese called filiciata and frittata di patate, a potato omelet. At the southern edge of the town is the ruined fortress, Castello della Valle, which passed between the hands of aristocrats, barons and kings. Today, its walls feature further paintings by Salvatore Fiume. The views of the Calabrian countryside from here are exquisite. Fiumefreddo Bruzio stands in the southwestern corner of the Province of Cosenza. Get here by climbing a scenic pathway that leads up the hillside from the village of Fiumefreddo Bruzio Beach. Parking is available to the east of the town centre. Stay overnight at hotels situated in the old town and scattered along the coastline. - Fiumefreddo Bruzio Hotel Deals - Vacation Rentals in Fiumefreddo Bruzio ![Residenza d'Epoca Borgodifiume](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/29000000/28950000/28947900/28947819/53fd04c3_y.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=340&ch=150) ### Residenza d'Epoca Borgodifiume Vico Granatello Fiumefreddo Bruzio CS CA $119 CA $130 total Apr 14 - Apr 15 includes taxes & fees Stay at this property in Fiumefreddo Bruzio.
