Sulmona — Confetti e Palazzo dell'Annunziata
Abruzzo
Sulmona has made confetti — sugar-coated almonds twisted into decorative bouquets — since medieval times, a craft still practised by small workshops around its elegant Gothic-Renaissance Palazzo dell'Annunziata. The Peligna valley's flat floor and the Maiella's slopes rising behind give the town a dramatic mountain backdrop.
