Siderno

Siderno (Calabrian: Sidernu or Siderni; , romanized: Sidérno) is a town and comune in the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria, Calabria, southern Italy, about 3 kilometres from Locri.

Siderno Marina is the newer town located on the Ionian coast. It is a destination for both Italian and foreign tourists and has a bathing beach.

Siderno Superiore is the old town, higher up on the flank of the coastal mountain range, featuring narrow streets and old buildings. It has historic palaces, such as the 17th century Palazzo Falletti, Palazzo Calautti, and Palazzo Correale-Santacroce (known for a sculpture depicting three human faces). It also is home to several religious buildings such as the Church of Saint Mary of Portosalvo, Siderno; Santa Maria dell’Arco; and San Nicola di Bari. It is near the historic Palazzo De Mojà, a Spanish-era residence, recently restored. The population of Siderno Superiore has largely relocated to the Marina which offers more job opportunities and services.
