Lemons, Paper and Civic Traditions in Amalfi

Amalfi's lemons and handmade paper give the town a character beyond its cathedral. Its celebrations also keep the patron saint and maritime past in public view.

Why go

Look for sfusato amalfitano lemons on the terraces and bambagina, the thick paper historically made in Amalfi. The feast of Saint Andrew, Byzantine New Year and the Historic Regatta connect public celebrations to the city's religious and seafaring history. Check current dates and the regatta's host city before planning around them.

Useful to know

  • If a celebration is part of your reason to travel, confirm the current date and location before booking.
  • Pair a look at Amalfi's paper craft with the cathedral for two sides of the town's history.
