Campoli del Monte Taburno, below Mount Taburno
Campoli del Monte Taburno takes its name from the mountain above it, the Taburno, the limestone massif that with Camposauro forms a regional park in the province of Benevento. The village stands on the lower slopes, among olive groves, vineyards and chestnut woods, and looks to Benevento or the Caudina valley for work and services.
Its population is growing: there were 1,661 residents in 2023, 7.4% more than in 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office. The population is also younger than average: an average age of 42.7 against 46.5 in the province, over-65s at 19.4% against 24.6%. Foreign residents are 14.3%.
For buyers, location and slope matter most. Houses in the centre are often masonry, built close together with uphill access; newer ones are on the edge of the village or along country roads. For a house on the mountain, ask practical questions: winter access, water, and heating in climate zone D.
The Sannio is an earthquake-prone area. Campoli is in zone 1, like 48 of the 78 municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration in the built-up area of 0.219 g. Before buying, ask for the year of construction, the structural design and any upgrade work.
The Revenue Agency publishes the cadastral maps. The report traces the land parcel from the address and checks the official landslide maps, which on the slopes of the Taburno should be read plot by plot.
