Agropoli is the capital city and commercial heart of the pristine area called Cilento in the province of Salerno, in the Campania region of Italy, located at the beginning of the Cilento coast, on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the most important city in the Cilento area and offers all beauties of a town during every season. It remains a fact that the Italians have kept the Cilento area too long for themselves. Agropoli is the main gate to this pristine area and is considererd the spot-on location to discover the whole Campania area with no big efforts. From the SS18 it is possible to reach North and South all major attracions of the whole Region. The town, where some tombs predating the Byzantine period were recently found, also houses the medieval ruins of San Francesco's monastery, and the Churches of the Holy Mary of Constantinople (16th century), San Marco, and San Francesco. The beaches of Trentova Bay contribute to make Agropoli an important seaside resort. In the Municipal Antiquarian, there is a sizeable collection of archaeological finds, representing life in the area from prehistoric to medieval times.
