Bernalda
Bernalda (Metapontino: Vernàlle or Bernàlle) is a town and comune (municipality) in the Province of Matera in the region of Basilicata in Italy. It has 11,922 inhabitants.
The nearby village of Metaponto is the site of the ancient city of Metapontum.
Until the 15th century, it was called Camarda. It is home to a castle built in the 15th century during the Aragonese rule in the Kingdom of Naples.
The patron Saint of Bernalda is Saint Bernardino of Siena. The celebration of Saint Bernardino is on 20 May and on 23 August.
As of 2026, the population is 11,922, of which 51.1% are male, and 48.9% are female. Minors make up 14.3% of the population, and seniors make up 25%.
As of 2025, of the known countries of birth of 11,727 residents, the most numerous are: Italy (10,558 – 90%), Albania (262 – 2.2%), Romania (242 – 2.1%), Germany (137 – 1.2%), Algeria (135 – 1.2%).
The castle was probably built by the Normans in the 11th century and restored by the Aragonese during their domination, when it was enlarged, fortified and protected with a moat and a drawbridge. On the west side there is a thin square tower considered more ancient than the other towers of round shape. The façade of the Castle that overlooks the Mother Church is the result of a later restoration.
