We stayed in town so we had to see the castle but it's certainly worth a visit. Nice views from the top as well.

This is the most romantic part of Agropoli, narrow lanes, centuries old homes, best sunsets, few bars and restaurants, try to visit day and evening, different atmosphere at both times, do not miss the chiesa of Maris Stella, and the castle.......... an absolute gem.

To reach this beautiful location you have to cross the city built during last century with his horrible enormous condominium buildings .
Still worth it

We visted the Castello Argonese and then the Borgo Medievale, done the road from the castle. It's a very old charming place, with small churches, small restaurants, stairs down to the city centre. From the top you can have beautiful view of Agropoli and the Mediterranean see.

Really loved this quaint location, steep steps but well worth the visit. Lots of small cafes along the route and benches so you can take a rest. Immaculately clean and very friendly.

Nice medieval town, with a monumental stair and city gate marking the entrance to the older part perched on top of a hill overlooking the sea. At the highest point stands the pretty Byzantine/Aragonese castle which provides an incredible view over the surrounding landscape, in which the Amalfi coast is easily spottable in the distance.

I stayed in Agropoli Oct 10-11 mainly to visit nearby Paestum. But I also wanted to see the old town and eat out. Reportedly people have lived in the area of the Agropoli old town for centuries B.C., even before Paestum was settled by the Greeks. But sites like the old castle closed on September 30 and many shops and restaurants were either closed or open on weekends. The whole scene is geared towards the patterns of Italian vacationers so don’t count on a lively town once the beach places slow down. There are some nice views of the sea and atmospheric narrow, hilly lanes but best visited in Summer!

Visited this castle because everybody was talking about it. Entrance cost only 1 Euro. Did not worth more than that.
Nice for taking view pictures but thats it.

This place is definitely worth a visit!!
When arriving from the city, you walk up wide steps until you reach the gate of the medieval city. Then strolling up to your right, you walk through very picturesque cobblestone streets up to the Castille Castle overlooking the other side of the bay.
The village has a nice and authentic atmosphere.
If you follow the locals, there are well hidden small swimming spots where the water is crystal clear.

vorrei informazioni su parcheggi liberi ad agropoli e sulla distanza del porto dal centro

Il porto è vicino al centro e proprio sul porto c'è un grande parcheggio a pagamento (stalli con le strisce blu), ma non eccessivamente oneroso, 1 euro l'ora. Quindi la soluzione migliore per visitare il porto ed il centro è parcheggiare al porto e continuare la passeggiata per il centro. Sul porto, infine, c'è una buona pizzeria, ed economica, il Galeone.

al porto c'è un ampio parcheggio sia libero che a pagamento e il borgo antico è raggiungibile da una panoramica rampa di scale che si imbocca vicino all'albergo Vecchia Dogana

hi Eddie. the burgo is a small medieval part of the town and therefore steep, narrow lanes and also steps to access different parts. Perhaps I can suggest an alternative visit.

in che modo si può raggiungere l'attrazione con i trasporti pubblici?per es. da via quintino Sella dove credo di soggiornare dal 2 al 9 luglio? grazie

Perchè con i trasporti pubblici?
via quintino sella è una traversa di piazza v. veneto/corso garibaldi (zona pedonale). Sei in centro. il borgo medievale è alla fine dell'isola pedonale, da dove partono gli scaloni che ti porteranno "sopraagropoli" (ngopp'aruopol).
Si tratta di una breve e piacevole passeggiata.
Se hai proprio bisogno di raggiungere il centro storico non a piedi (ad es. per problemi di mobilità personale) d'estate c'è una navetta gratuita (dovrebbe essere già attiva a luglio, ma meglio chiedere prima) o gli ape-calessino (a pagamento).
Quanto ai bus pubblici, sinceramente non so nemmeno se raggiungano la zona (problemi di strade e viabilità).

ciao,in realtà il castello offre l'accesso solo alla strutttura esterna,non ci sono stanze o interni aperti al pubblico,si accede e si visitano le mura e tutto il perimetro.In genere è aperto al pubblico liberamente,tranne quando si svolgono spettacoli in genere serali,in cui si paga il biglietto dello spettacolo.Solitamente è accessibile tutto l'anno.
