What is Acquedotto della Bolla?
Acquedotto della Bolla is an ancient medieval aqueduct with large arches, set in the landscape behind Eboli’s castle. Its context is closely tied to the watercourse and the mills that were built along it.
Weboli describes the watercourse by different names along its course: Ermice in its upper section, Tufara in its middle section, and Telegro farther downstream, where it flows into the Sele.
Many mill structures remain visible in Eboli, though many are abandoned or converted. Together, the aqueduct, channel and mills form a picture of how water shaped the area’s historic landscape.
