San Gregorio Magno is an Italian town in Salerno province with 4089 inhabitants.


Until recently, it lay on the shores of a Pleistocene lake, which completely dried up in the early 19th century. In Roman times it was a flourishing territory. After the depopulation caused by the barbarian invasions, it became a Benedictine grange, and around the church dedicated to San Gregorio Magno, a farmhouse was formed, which during the fourteenth century was given to the Lagni family, subsequently to the Caracciolos, and finally to the Falletti.

From 1811 to 1860, it was part of the district of Buccino, belonging to the Campagna district of the kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Later, from 1860 to 1927, during the reign of Italy, it was part of the district of Buccino, belonging to the Campagna district.


Every year, from 25 to 28 August, the ancient village of the town, with its 600 centenary caves carved into the rock, is populated with intoxicating music and scents.

In addition to the Gregorians themselves, many visitors flock to the alleys of Via Bacco for this unmissable occasion, where they can taste, in addition to the excellent local wine, the typical specialties of Gregorian cuisine: cheeses, cured meats, pasta, and the famous "patan conduct."


A unique party of its kind offers a real sensory experience in an engaging and friendly atmosphere.
