Vigna San Martino

Vigna San Martino (also known as Vigne San Martino) is a historic vineyard and agritourism estate located on the Vomero hill in Naples, Italy. The vineyard covers approximately seven and a half hectares, stretching between the Corso Vittorio Emanuele and the gardens of the Certosa di San Martino (Charterhouse of San Martino). It has been present for around six centuries, making it one of the oldest cultivated green spaces in the city. In 1967 it was designated a "Bene di interesse paesaggistico" (Landscape Heritage Asset), and in 2010 it was declared an Italian national monument. The property was purchased in the late 1980s by Giuseppe Morra and is currently managed by the association "Piedi per la Terra" (Feet for the Earth), which is dedicated to ecological education. The vineyard produces Aglianico and Falanghina grapes, yielding approximately 4,000 liters of wine per year. It functions as an agritourism site, offering visitors a rare combination of wine production, historical landscape, and environmental education within the urban fabric of Naples.
