The Carolino Aqueduct (also known as Vanvitelli's Aqueduct) is a monumental engineering work designed by Luigi Vanvitelli to supply the Royal Palace of Caserta, its fountains, gardens, and the nearby industrial complex of San Leucio. Inaugurated in 1762 after 9 years of work, the aqueduct draws water from the Fizzo springs in the territory of Airola and winds for about 38 kilometers, much of which is underground. In 1997 it was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list along with the Palace and the Belvedere of San Leucio.
