Benevento is a heritage-dense hill town in Campania where the rivers Calore Irpino and Sabato meet, with a walkable centre thick with historic churches and cafés. The 8th-century Santa Sofia Church holds UNESCO World Heritage status as part of the Longobards in Italy group, and the cathedral keeps the relics of Saint Bartholomew. Vineyards in the surrounding province add a wine-country dimension to the wider area.
