Rotondella is a small and charming hilltop village in the province of Matera, in the heart of Italy, full of beauties to be discovered by strolling through its streets.
The origin of the name Rotondella, pleasant and captivating, can probably be traced back to the term "Rotunda Maris" which named it in the late Middle Ages and indicates two specific characteristics of the village:
- its round and spiral shape, on top of a hill almost 600m high;
- its proximity to the sea, in particular to the Ionian Sea, providing visitors with a splendid view.
