The small but pretty village welcomes and offers you a well deserved rest while, at the same time, fascinating you by the many works of contemporary art exhibited along its lanes. As you explore Vico, you can appreciate all the sculptures and paintings on exhibition here, the number of which increase every year when the annual festival takes place: The Artists’ Week. This magical hamlet is unique also for the fact that it has its own language, the so-called Arivaresca dialect: it partly originated thanks to its tinsmiths, craftsmen who repaired pots and pans and who, craftily in order to not be understood, invented their own language, which has been passed down through the years, even up to today. The enigmatic Pieve di San Paolo, dating back to the 11th century, must not be missed; its peculiar allegorical motifs, carved into the facade’s architrave, are most intriguing.
