The story

The drone takes off from the seafront, between the palms and the sea, then rises to reveal medieval Gaeta from above, with its rooftops, the harbour and the castle.

Gaeta Vecchia is the Sant'Erasmo quarter, the medieval core of the town, born as a stronghold against Saracen raids: a district climbing beneath the Angevin-Aragonese Castle, a maze of alleys, arches and churches holding a thousand years of history.

History and sights are on the Gaeta Vecchia page.
