At 15 kilometers from the Agriturismo La Dimora dei Cavalieri is located the Grancia Park, close to Brindisi di Montagna and a few kilometers from the Lucanian Dolomites. This is a natural setting of great value that develops along a path through a magnificent forest and opens into a large amphitheater where during the summer it puts on the Cinespettacolo entitled La Storia Bandita.
It is a very impressive performance that traces the events related to the uprisings of peasants known as Lucania and stories of brigandage.
