Situated in the heart of the upper Bidente Valley, it is known for its rich archaeological and historical-artistic heritage: the Mons. Domenico Mambrini Civic Museum houses the remains of the Roman city of Mevaniola, the villa of Theodoric and the abbey of S. Ellero. The village is part of the group of slow cities, the town of good living in which it is possible to rediscover a slow lifestyle. Galeata is also known for hospitality and the quality of local products. It is worth strolling through the streets of its small centre with its ancient flavour and stopping in the shops.
