THE TERRITORY of the FLYING EAGLE

San Costantino Albanese is a municipality of Basilicata in the province of Potenza, located on a slope of Val Sarmento, in the heart of the Pollino National Park with a very particular naturalistic landscape.

It was founded in 1534 from the population coming from Albania and from the city of Corone (Greece). It was a migration due to the invasion of the Albanian territory by the Ottoman Empire.

The peculiarity of San Costantino Albanese inhabitants are, still today, the language arbëreshë, and the traditional customs and Byzantine rituals.
