The Villa il Pilaccio nel Cilento

Cembalo Palace

The villa “Il Pilaccio nel Cilento” was erected in 1875 in a small area neighbouring the town of Perdifumo, known as Mercato Cilento.It was built as a “country palace” for the Cembalo family, and was located nearby the old convent of Santa Maria deiMartiri. The presence of the convent enhanced the growth, in the middle 1400, of a small village where an open-air market selling local products was held every Saturday. For that reason the new-born village was named Forum Sabati, Saturday market, later simply called Mercato. Green door
