Unique for its town structure, famous set in the history of Italian cinema.
Those traveling on the road along the Amalfi Coast will not be able to appreciate the beauty of Furore unless they deliberately go there. Hidden away in the mountains, Furore is particularly striking because of its unique urban structure. The town is completely bereft of squares and open spaces, and is a maze of alleyways and flights of steps which clings to the hillside.
Furore was built on terraces carved into the rock face. The town is divided into an internal part, where the village can be found, and a crevasse, which plummets into the sea known, as the "Fiord of Furore". The village is known as a small center of popular culture, characterized by legends and linguistic inventions ("nicknames"), and for being chosen as the set for films such as "Il Miracolo", "Paisà", "La Macchina Ammazzacattivi", and "Viaggio in Italia". These films brought personalities such as Federico Fellini, Roberto Rossellini and Anna Magnani to Furore. It is a town which lives among the memories of the past and a love for cinema, within a landscape which is itself a natural film set.
