Distance from Cariati 30 and 45 Km north: Rossano, Corigiano,both can be visited together in a day if just to see the most important things. Corigliano’s castle is sure to be visited this attributed to Roberto Guiscardi in 1073, with an adjacent church dedicated to San Pietro. The city gradually spreads around the castle with its churches "San francesco of paola ,Sant’antonio of padua" and "Santa Maria". A Rossano instead a visit is to be made to see the Codex purpureus Rossanensis, it’s a prescious Greek gospel made in V-VI cent. A.D, perhaps in Syria or in Palestine. Ruled with gold and silver on a purple parchment prized, hence the adjective that distinguishes it preserves 188 of the 400 original pages, the size of about cm. 30 by 20. The pages contain the Greek text of Gospels of the saints Matthew and Marco another place to visit is :Rossano’s Museum of licorice it’s the only one in Italy that exhibits inside the antique as well as modern tools used in the processing, marketing, and extraction of the root from which we obtain licorice, as well as clothes, objects, manuscripts related to the Amarelli family who have been working for about 4 centuries in the production of the famous licorice namesake known now in all the world!!
