🍰 **PASTIERA NAPOLETANA: UN DOLCE, SETTE STRISCE E TANTE LEGGENDE!**

La pastiera è uno dei simboli più amati della tradizione napoletana. Ricotta, grano cotto, fiori d'arancio e quel profumo inconfondibile che nelle case di Napoli annuncia l'arrivo della Pasqua.

Ma vi siete mai chiesti perché sulla pastiera ci sono tradizionalmente sette strisce di pasta frolla? 🤔

🌊 Una leggenda le collega ai sette doni offerti alla sirena Partenope.

🏛️ Un'altra racconta che rappresentino le strade dell'antica Napoli.

E c'è persino una storia che parla di pescatori, del mare e di sette ceste misteriose!

Nel nuovo articolo del blog dell'**Hotel Il Convento** raccontiamo la storia della pastiera, i suoi ingredienti, le leggende che la circondano e qualche consiglio su dove assaggiarla durante una visita a Napoli.

Un lieu secret de Naples, entre mémoire, histoire et traditions 💀

Dans le Rione Sanità se cache l'un des endroits les plus singuliers de Naples : le Cimetière des Fontanelle.

Une immense ancienne carrière de tuf, des milliers de crânes et d'ossements… mais ce lieu est bien plus qu'un ossuaire.

Les Fontanelle racontent une tradition profondément napolitaine : celle des anime pezzentelle, ces âmes oubliées auxquelles les habitants confiaient prières, espoirs et demandes de protection.

Fermé pendant plusieurs années, le Cimetière des Fontanelle a rouvert en 2026 et peut à nouveau être visité sur réservation.

Dans notre nouveau guide, nous vous racontons son histoire, les traditions liées aux célèbres capuzzelle et tout ce qu'il faut savoir pour organiser votre visite.
