Polistena: History and Culture among the Plains of Calabria
Polistena is located in the eastern part of the Piana di Gioia Tauro, about 70 km southwest of Catanzaro and 50 km northeast of Reggio Calabria. The municipality has a long historical tradition, dating back to the times of Magna Graecia, when Polistena served as a transit station between the Magna Graecia cities of Locri and Medma (Rosarno). The territory is rich in archaeological finds, some of which are kept in the Polistena Museum, which testify to the presence of Roman and Neolithic settlements.
