A jewel of architecture
Sala del Normanno
It’s located inside the villa which pays tribute to Mediterranean history and art, thanks to the recovery of the Norman roots combined with the modernity of eclectic style, which is expressed not only in the original architectural undulations and the typical ceramics with bright colours of the Vietri tradition but also in the famous azulejos by Antoni Gaudi.
The Norman Hall, sophisticated and welcoming, with its characteristic sandstone corners, is named after a life-size high relief of a Norman knight and can house up to 180 guests at the tables. It is equipped with kitchen equipped for banqueting and autonomous services, wardrobe, bar, screen with video projector, dance floor and entertainment space. It overlooks the suggestive Corte dei Mosaici.
Adjacent to the Villa del Normanno, set among olive trees and bougainvillea, the Buvette is a small wine cellar in country chic style, ideal for wine and cheese tastings or welcome cocktails to be tasted in the adjacent loggias with tables overlooking the amphitheatreH

The Court of the Mosaics
The evocative courtyard in front of the Norman Hall strikes for its original paving in travertine and lava stone, which alternate in sinuous geometries. Equipped with chairs, benches and tables in wrought iron, it is embellished with olive trees, fruit trees and a well-kept lawn.
For its intimate and romantic atmosphere and the delicious little wrought iron arbour crowned with jasmine, the Court of the Mosaics is really appreciated by the newlyweds for the celebration of the civil outdoor wedding; so, Tenuta dei Normanni has been the first location officially affiliated with the Municipality of Salerno.
The courtyard is the ideal setting for a pleasant welcome aperitif for wedding guests, but it is also perfect for parties and outdoor cocktail parties. Indeed, it has a bar corner and an original ‘Forneria’ in a country chic style, with a wood oven from the Neapolitan tradition, that allows to take out the typical goodness of the Mediterranean tradition, from bread to fabulous pizza.

The Garden
It is a beautiful room in the garden that can house up to 350 guests at tables, thanks to the 1200 square meters of covered and paved area and, if necessary, a side closure in case of unexpected weather. Surrounded by an English style lawn, it is the favorite setting of the bride and groom for the central part of the wedding reception and of teenagers for fabulous 18th birthday parties.
The Garden is equipped with a covered buffet area, which is set up for the traditional gastronomic walk, and a characteristic Vietri ceramic kitchen corner for the scenic preparation of the dishes.
There is also a location for entertainment, live music and the wild dances of the guests to have fun under the stars.
At night, it is illuminated by the scenic effects of the suspended lights, which enhance the water features of the fountains and the luxuriance of trees and blooms, accompanying the paths lined with walls in ancient natural stone that highlight the romantic charm of the estate.
A unique spectacle
The Norman Amphitheatre
It is the flagship of the estate, made of warm sandstone in the natural hollow of a cavea and decorated with silver olive trees. The 800sqm arena can hold up to 1,500 people on the bleachers, which embrace a 400-seat audience and the stage, suitable for concerts and live performances.
For its uniqueness, both day and night when the atmosphere becomes dreamy, it is the favourite choice to celebrate all the special occasions. From the celebration of the civil wedding ceremony to the dinner under the stars, from the welcome aperitif to the cake cutting, the space so majestic and versatile is perfect for hosting some moments of the wedding reception or the entire event, but also to have unforgettable parties, shows and events.
The area is composed of a kitchen equipped for banqueting and autonomous services, a bar, a dance area and entertainment.
The charm of the arena extends into the adjacent green area of the Oasis.
