Antica Fabbrica di Ceramiche Mennella

Highlight • Monument

The Antica Fabbrica di Ceramiche Mennella, with its 500 years of history, follows the great tradition of the island of Ischia, famous for the processing of terracotta and the production of vases as early as the eighth century BC. as demonstrated by exceptional archaeological finds including the famous Cup of Nestor, admirable testimony of the past, in which the ability to shape and the light breath of the first expressions of poetry in the West merge into the simplest material.
Guardian of this heritage of values and experiences, on an island where ceramics is culture, Mennella is the reference point of an immortal art thanks to the work that is handed down from generation to generation at the highest levels and in the European and international. Casamicciola Ceramiche Mennella.

Sant'Alessandro Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Going towards Casamicciola, to the right of the port, you see the Castiglione wood; just before reaching it there is the small hill of Sant'Alessandro, ending towards the sea in a small beach, called "of the English". On the hill, along the ramps, there is a 13th century chapel, with a rectangular plan, extrados vaulted roof and rustic facade, which is a typical example of minor Ischia architecture. Founded on the initiative of the Di Manso family of ancient Benevento origins, owner of the whole hill, it was dedicated to the martyr pope Sant'Alessandro. Near the church, the Di Mansos had a small building, inserted in an older complex, of which today only a lava stone portal from the 15th century in the "Durazzesco-Catalan" style remains, whose architectural solution of the arc tangent to the rectangular molding represents a unicum on the island, while equivalents are found in Naples in the Bonifacio and Penne palaces.

Port of Ischia

Highlight • Settlement

Pretty place with a small port. All connections to Naples go from here. The car driver is significantly cheaper than the speedboat.
