The Castle of Lettere was built by the Duchy of Amalfi during the 10th century to defend its northern borders and was part of a network of fortifications that ensured the Amalfi people control of the two sides of the Lattari mountains. The site, in fact, still enjoys a splendid panoramic position that allowed you to control the area from the port of Castellammare to the mouth of the Sarno and the entire Gulf of Naples, but also the Sarno Valley dominated by Vesuvius and the Sarno mountains up to to Pagani-
