Furore

Discovery Services > Info Point > Amalfi Coast

The first information that we have certain housing settlement indicate Furore as a simple farmhouse of the Royal town of Amalfi. His name, probably, had come from the fjord of his Marina. Furore emerge from complete anonymity by completing the cadastre Carolina 1752 that returns an image of a small coastal communities throughout the territory, without arable land and sparsely inhabited.

Unassailable stronghold even at the time of the Saracen invasions, its inhabitants were devoted to pasture and industries, while the Fiord was a natural harbor, which took place in the flourishing trafficking and developed the oldest forms of industrial paper, mills fed by the waters of the stream coming down from Schiatro Lattari Monti.

The courses, consisting primarily of stairs and paths s'inerpicavano uphill, allowing a series of exchanges and relations between men who, today, given the strong presence of cart roads, it is definitely in second place. The movement of ascent, which took place on foot, slow and measured, transversely to the body compared elongated Sorrento Peninsula, has replaced the drive in the longitudinal, sliding fast.

The state along the coast and leads to Amalfi, allows a panoramic view of the landscape but inevitably ends up prioritize places, exalting and excluding some, tragically, others sight of the visitor.

So was Furore broken into two: one part of its navy (the Fiord, that is) perceived as "horrid" extraordinary natural phenomenon isolated, and the country, with its houses scattered along the ridge, practically "invisible" to those traveling along the Amalfi Coast.


Così Furore è stato spezzato in due: da un lato la sua marina (il Fiordo, cioè), percepibile come "orrido", straordinario fenomeno naturalistico isolato e, dall'altro, il paese, con le sue case disseminate lungo il costone, praticamente "invisibile" per chi viaggia lungo la Costiera Amalfitana.

Per questo testo si ringrazia il Comune di Furore
