Understand

Atrani, once the residence of wealthy Roman aristocracy, holds a captivating history. However, it faced a series of challenges, including domination by Ruggero II and the Normanni, as well as the Pisani invasion in 1337, which stripped the Amalfi Coast of its independence and power. Despite its trials, Atrani retains the charm of a traditional fishing village. As you enter from the beach, you'll find houses nestled on the steep mountain valley, adorned with beautiful gardens and lemon terraces. Unlike bustling cities, Atrani boasts tranquility, even during summer, as it opens up to the inviting beach and sea. This secret has given rise to a delightful square, dotted with a handful of bars and restaurants.
