The village of Citt\u00e0 Sant\u2019Angelo strikes tourists for its liveliness, its traditions, its typical products, the enchanting landscape and for its truly enviable position. Considering its geographical position, the town of Citt\u00e0 Sant\u2019Angelo allows you to savor both the land and sea cuisine. Among the typical dishes of Abruzzo, it is possible to taste maccheroni alla chitarra,<\/em> pasta alla mugnaia<\/em>, kebabs<\/em> (skewers of sheep), cace and ove<\/em> (literally cheese and eggs with lamb), neole<\/em>, cagionetti and fiadone<\/em>.<\/p>\n History<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The origins of the village of Citt\u00e0 Sant'Angelo are still very uncertain. Probably the first to create a settlement on the hill were the Vestini, but the first official act only dates back to the 875, where you remember the presence of a castle and a port. Around 400 arose the first churches in the area between Citt\u00e0 Sant'Angelo and Atri. Urban development followed three different historical moments: reconstruction begun after the 1240, of the fortified nucleus in a semicircle, delimited currently from Road Castle Street, Minerva, Via del Ghetto and Via del Grottone. Between 1300 and 1700, Citt\u00e0 Sant'Angelo, despite numerous attacks from the French and Spaniards, experienced a period of splendour. In the treaty of Aachen in 1748 the town passed definitively under the Kingdom of Naples until the Unity of Italy. In March 1814 Citt\u00e0 Sant'Angelo, together with the municipalities of pens, Castiglione Messer Raimondo and Penna Sant'Andrea was the protagonists of the first uprisings of the Carbonarist movement of the Italian Risorgimento.<\/p>\n Memories latest tell the sad history of the second world war when in April 1940 the Ministry of the Interior inquadr\u00f2 and leased the stable of the former Manifattura Tabacchi, in the historical center of the city, for adibirlo to single concentration camp in the province of Pescara with 200 beds where they were imprisoned men for the most part of Yugoslav nationality.

\nA few kilometers from Pescara, Citt\u00e0 Sant'Angelo is located on a hill 30 minutes from the mountain and with the sea that touches its territory.
\nPart of the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy<\/strong>, Citt\u00e0 Sant\u2019Angelo is also a city of wine<\/em> and oil<\/em>, a slow city<\/em>, a green city<\/em>.<\/p>\n
\nThe Angolan hills covered with vineyards and olive groves offer excellent products, especially the Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wine.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nThe village vestino-Roman, that would have been located in the nearby hill of salt, it was probably destroyed in the high Middle Ages; the Lombards would have rebuilt the country ex novo in today's location, leaving, as traces of their presence, the cult of the Angel. Testimonies of this cult are present both in the toponym, both in the municipal coat of arms, which represents, in fact, San Michele Arcangelo that kills the dragon.<\/p>\n
\nThe names most pompous were those of Zizza and Solomon that coated always primary roles within the Community in Angola of the Ancien R\u00e9gime. With the coming of the monastic orders in the first half of the fourteenth century saw the enlargement of existing churches and the realization of monasteries.
\nIn the XVII century concludes actual reconstruction with the completion of houses and palaces of the nobility of the agrarian bourgeoisie. This is the reason for the current plant \"molten\".
\nIt was in fact constituted, gradually, through subsequent expansions and aggregations of settlements claims, up to form a strong urban clot causing the accommodation in the historical center as well as still today we see him.
\nSaid plant is crossed by a long course, intersected by a series of small streets and alleys closed, denominated in local dialect 'li ruve', within the walls and with the doors partially conserved.<\/p>\n
