Workation in Matera: the essentials
People lived in the caves of the Sassi for thousands of years, until the Italian state moved the inhabitants out in the 1950s because of the conditions there. Today these rock-cut districts in Basilicata are a UNESCO site of restored houses, churches and hotels, and they have served as a film set for The Passion of the Christ and No Time to Die. Matera was European Capital of Culture in 2019, and most of its roughly 60,000 residents live in the modern town on the plateau, where everyday life happens. Trains towards Bari are run by Ferrovie Appulo Lucane rather than the national operator, and Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport is about 60 km away. In the Sassi, expect steep steps and day-trippers.
