Castle of Colobraro and Panoramic Point

The birth of the town of Colobraro, it is known, is traced back to the destruction and abandonment of the Greek colony of Heraclea during Rome's war against Pyrrhus king of Epirus. Built near a coenoby of Italo-Greek monks devoted to the cult of St. Mary of Xenophio, it had fame and name for the strange name it bears, coming from "coluber," meaning snake. And this is where our story begins.

The village stands on very steep rocks and the streets of diverge and converge suggestively. Apparently, the baronial castle, located at the top, holds some secrets that not everyone knows. For example, that in the bottom of its wells are hundreds of snakes that from the countryside find refuge there.
One day the baron of the castle hired some of his braves to catch some of these snakes to frighten the subjects of Colobraro. "In this way"-he said-"no one will dare to speak against me anymore who is the absolute master!"

One of his good fellows wanted to sneak through the castle's many dungeons, but he never returned. The other companions began to worry, but the baron would not listen, insensitive as he was, to any excuse for not going. "Go, I say, and the treasure that is there I will give you all of it," but nothing, no one went and they were all hanged.
