Bominaco like Caporciano of which it is part, sits high overlooking the Navelli Valley. It is probably one of the most visited sites in the Abruzzo. Certainly you will see pictures of the inside of the Oratory Church posted on most tourist information to do with the Abruzzo. The art of the interior begs to rewriting of Art History as it is today! The Churches date back to early Benedictine history / when the monks were given the lands in that region. Higher still above the churches & the village itself stands defiantly the Castle from which all activity could have been monitored. A well worth visit for anyone to spend a couple of hours. Access to the churches can be gained by ringing the tel. No. posted on the gate of the Church and asking for Chiara - she is the english speaking guide. The Castle can be visited freely.
