Italy sadly has 6000 abandoned villages mostly in the southern part of the country.. I've been thinking about these villages for years now and finally decided to go find 4 of them..

It was the opposite of yes theory....
Living and experiencing and expanding
About 15 years ago I made a bicycle tour through the Swiss, Italian and Liechtenstein Alps. On the first descend my brake broke and I somehoe managed to survive and get it fixed. The first night I stopped at two people sitting at the road side on a steep climb, an Italian man and his wife from the Dominican Republic. it was getting dark already. It turned out the whole about 200 years old village of about 15 to 20 houses behind them belonged to them, they were the only inhabitants. The man offered me that I could pick one of the houses still having a roof and spend the night there. I rolled out a thin aluminum mat and my sleepingbag on a not very even stone floor. Not the most comfortable night, but it was awesome!
I just love seeking discomfort, making mad journeys, it just brings the most amazing experiences.
LGBT Agenda in giving results
Great video. I Very much enjoyed it.
The most beautiful part about this to me is how touched the older people are to have someone to talk to and share their story with. In a certain way I think old age mirrors these crumbling ghost towns. As everything falls apart, people leave, until there's nothing left but a memory.
Even listen and wanted to see him. This time there was many people's, but sometimes I think much silent times in year..
So beautifully put!

Very beautiful and nice
I'm crying! I never dreamed I'd see my great-grandma's town on a Yes Theory video! She was born and raised in Craco. My great-grandpa, Nunzio La Canfora, wasting no time after the marriage ceremony, whisked her away to New York City in 1915. Legend has it she went kicking and screaming. While I never met her, my dad lived with her and said she refused to learn English and only ever left their apartment in Little Italy to walk to mass at the Catholic church or buy fresh produce. RIP Maria Demma La Canfora.
Why people leave the town I don't understand
You made me cry . People do leave , but memories stay . They stay forever in the core of our heart . ❤️
Thanks for sharing
@@IshfaqAhmad-vn9sk Economics. Same all over the world. You must know that. Remote places not providing enough to live. All human history and most animals and, even, plant, fungae, bacteria do the same. There is another reason - breeding: a small population means finding a breeding partner requires travelling - again, true for rest of living world as for humans. This story could be written for fringe regions everywhere including Wales in United Kingdom
@@IshfaqAhmad-vn9sk earthquake rocked the buildings. Unsafe.
I own a small remodeling company and every time I see these old, crumbling buildings in Europe it makes me want to fix them. There’s so much history and craftsmanship in these buildings!
come and start. italy actually investing a lot of money in renovations etc, i think they call it superbonus, where you can get till recently up to 110% cost covered by state.
Many villages that were abandoned in the 1970 and 1980 are currently being repopulated and renovated, at least individual houses. They are often descendants of the former emigrants who then spend their vacations there or even the whole summer. In some cases, however, there are major problems with ownership, since inheritances are divided equally among all the children, who then often live somewhere abroad and are difficult to trace. So it happens that if someone wants to buy there, it can be very difficult to find the owner and if found, to persuade him to sell - which is because there is a lot of bureaucracy involved and the value is so low that the owners actually want nothing to do with it.
@@izoyt 110%? Sounds like that would attract many shady people...
Yes, history and craftsmanship, but not much earthquake protection sadly.
Ya have much to do in your home town. Forget the publicity.
One very unique thing about your channel is that, unlike some American/European travel bloggers, you never display a condescending attitude whatsoever! You are always respectful, polite and sensitive to other cultures, customs and its people. Love this channel for the unique, interesting and immensely engaging content you all bring to us. God bless you all and may your team grow and flourish to amazing heights. All the very best always!
These condescending attitude comes from the main stream media. Just look how they talk to other world leaders, like treating them as misbehaving children
"Yes Theory is slowly turning into flying around the globe and hanging out with old people" - AND I LOVE IT!!
True history is with the old.
Yeah. I like old people too. ⚡⚡
It's the best content ! And it expires !!!! So amazing they keep these people alive in memory !!!
They just keep hammering out these masterpieces one after the other
great👍
@@maripiyadfernandes5499 good
Nice
great story
Hi
I’m from italy and especially in the south of the country there are a lot of abandoned towns even way older than the ones shown in this video. If you notice most of them are built in places that are hard to reach (hills, mountains, etc.), that’s because back in the days there were ottomans pirates invasions so they used natural barriers to defend. At some point the invasions stopped, so there was no need anymore to live in such isolated places and they rebuilt the towns on the coasts near the sea.
just one thing, when you translate from Italian, the word 'paese' may mean 'country', as is translated in this video, but also 'village', that is the meaning used by the people in their contest here: they are talking about the specific villages you questioned them on :)
Ti be precise in Italian Country is translated Paese with a capital C while “small town” is translated “paese”. Also “country” in English may mean “a non urban area” which would be translated “campagna” in Italian
@@Tulkash01 Latin: patriam, French: pays. The region you are from.
@@MsMesem "Patriam" is "the land of our fathers" or "the fatherland" in english. In italian it's "patria" btw.
These abandoned ghost towns are just stunning overall. They may look creepy or eerie at first glance, however they're able to capture the interests of many people across the globe. Happy Holidays, everyone.
@@dansouthwell6557Omg we literally don’t care! 😮
That's because of the hidden history of our world. We seek the truth
amongus
@Dan Southwell let's see who asked here😨
Have a look at a guy on yt called Shiey, he explored a few of these in Sardinia and they look amazing
So wonderful to see this. My Grandmother was from Santo Stefano del Sol and I have a photo of her and other people gathered in the street there. I am thrilled to hear they are rebuilding because I would love to visit!
Actually, the ghost town shown in the video it's called Santo Stefano di Sessanio, and it is located in the region of Abruzzo. Santo Stefano del Sole is located in the Campania region, and it's still populated by about 2000 people, so you will find it quite lively hehe
You must be fast. Now is dramatic change going on with Albanian moving in and others migrants from the east and south.
@@borivojetravica569 albanians moving in italian ghotown?🧐
You should! How wonderful that would be!
It's hard to understand. All over Italy pristine natural places are destroyed with tourist resorts, while there are so many ghost towns in beautiful places ! The fabric for a beautiful retreat is in place, it only needs renovating .. adding maybe a pool and facilities and it would be beautiful ..
Of course these places became desolate because of shortage of work opportunities and high costs of maintaining sewerage, drinkwater, electrics etc. and often to connect with a road. And gradually lost villlage services like a school, baker&grocer.
I guess now with 4g/5g connetivity such places might be more interesting as remote working is more optional ..(Although people might want the opposite, and get away from modern 24/7 connectivity ..). And this village Santo Stefano di Sessanio is just 30 minutes from Aquila and 2 hrs from Rome ..
A few years ago, it was "800 abandoned Italian towns" now it is over 6,000. Mostly in Southern and mountain Itay. Beautiful to see, vexing to ponder.
Not really when you think about what young people want and the modern comforts of life. I grew up on a farm with no internet and 3 tv stations at most, I never realized what I missed or learned about growing up independent till I moved into town. In a lot of ways I want that life back but yet I don’t want to lose the modern conveniences of life in town.
I don't get why though. Now that 'working from home' has become a thing, and people looking to unwind and for tranquility, these villages are the perfect place. They're perfect for middle class families looking to get away from the busy stressful city life.
@@BamBamGT1 there is no internet and the buildings are going down everyday little by little. There is so much money that needed to be invested to make the towns be ok to live in but in italy all the money go to shitty mafia people making shitty paper buildings and etc etc. These ghost towns will become more and more until all italians will be in big city like rome or Milan and nobody left on the countryside
@@BamBamGT1 with WHAT internet connection? lol
@@BamBamGT1 the absurd Italian taxation certainly is part of the problem. In smaller villages, house taxes should be minimal, but instead, due to a totally flawed system, you pay taxes and bills that are almost as high as in the city.
I really like the amount of respect that you have when touring the very old homes and buildings!
The mural on the ceiling gave me goosebumps, it's an absolute marvel of a piece, inspired from the classicism art period by the roman feel with the subtle use of impressionism in the background to give it depth. Just sitting in an abandoned building almost forgotten until Yes Theory showed this treasure to the world. If only it could be moved so it can be further appreciated by the masses.
I say keep it right in the abandoned untouched building where it can rest peacefully. The works of art in the cities tend to be walked all over and it loses its value. I think it’s perfect right where it is
@@nicktheavatar_ I concur…
i didnt ask
ok
Oui oui
"If one forgets the old, one will not see the beautiful in the new." literally so beautiful
I can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve almost been to Italy. It’s one of the only countries I want to visit (massive Roman history lover). I’ve booked 7 trips and was forced to cancel each time. Here’s hoping in 2023 I’ll finally make it.
Hopefully you will my bro 🫂
Hope for you to come here soon!
Please keep us updated if you happen to visit❤
Have you made it?
Have you made it bro?
Thanks for the interesting video!
Just a note about the translation: "paese" is translated into "country" several times, although in that context it means "village".
I laughed when Thomas said "yes theory is becoming finding old people around the world" its so wholesome tho😂❤
old people are treasures..
Honestly I’d watch that series 😂
It's the upmarket "Bald and Bankrupt" 😂
@@MrAlipatik
When you get older, you learn to not give a f*ck about the unimportant things in life. Hopefully, everyone makes this journey in their lives.
😂 no more party only charity
I love that you're basically finding older people from around the world and hanging out with them. So much originality and preservation of what is unique to them. I think younger people tend to think older people have nothing to offer, but they are the keepers of culture and ancestral knowledge. I love this.
I'm the sunglasses guy who appears in the video. I'm truly sorry for the death of Giuseppe, one of the most real persons I've ever met in my life. RIP Giuseppe, great man.
The ending, talking about hope for the future... so beautiful! You guys said these ghost towns were peaceful, and you can get that same feel from the entire video - a feeling of peace. Thanks again for all you do! and for giving local people the time and space to share their stories and memories with us.
My great great grandparents were from Vecchia and Gibellina. This was awesome to see because my grandmother tells me so many stories about my heritage but I’ve never seen it. My grandmother told us stories as kids how they were forced out and came on a boat to New Orleans. They came with nothing and I’ve only seen their story in a New Orleans museum but never have seen where I am from like this. Thank you for this!
If only you could find your ancestral home there. Its probably still standing and your its rightful heir.
I love every episode where you randomly find amazing old people and hangout with them. You should make a series for it, it will be so amazing 😍
What do you think this is if it isn't a series?
@@garymaidman625 It isn't intentionally a series about befriending elderly people. What they are saying is that there should be one.
Staffan omg!! Glad he's back!! I squealed when he showed up on screen
Thank you for sharing and your guys' positivity is inspiring and these videos warm my heart and give me hope. Much love to you all!!
"if one forgets the old, one will not see the beautiful in the new" beautifully said
what the old man said is so right "but the bad man wants to be the master of other people's things"
This video was absolutely amazing i enjoyed every minute of it.
Thanks yes theory. Because watching you guys is like a stress killer. You broaden our horizon. It's so satisfying to watch you. Whenever I'm in tension or worried i just watch one of your videos.
Italy countryside looks unreal ❤️ Earth is soooooo beautiful
Thanks guys visto Puglia
Tysm ❤
As an Italian I had no idea about these spots! Super interesting and what characters you met! Also I’m so happy Staffan is becoming part of more videos he ads such great energy to Yes Theory and feels like such a good fit with Thomas and the rest of the guys!! 💛
You must be from the north then.
@@faramund9865 yes 😁 from Como, almost as north as it gets haha
@@MrMcDonalds16 From Como? Lucky guy!
@@desert245 Yes, its a beautiful place! Where are you from?
Wow, those places are beautiful and what they did on restoring the last town was wonderful. Thank you for always doing amazing videos❣️👏🏻❣️
Fascinating, haunting, and beautiful. Thank you for this special trip. And thank you for being so kind.
I’m pretty sure the old man at the end of the third town section said goodbye and “Forza England!” to you guys, which translates to “Let’s go England!” since you were speaking English. I always love to see the locals make an effort to connect with you guys and contribute in any way to sharing their experiences. Great work as always
i just love italy there are so many small towns with big histories which are important to preserve and admire their beauty and history, thank you for putting light on these towns!
Oh my! His face got so full of emotions when you guys hugged him...that was truly something else...
I can't stop thinking about what he might have felt at that moment.
We miss you guys
I was touched by this video around 19:25 when one of the guys stopped and prayed for the inhabitants who no longer able to live in that abandoned village -- very sweet to see his concern about those many people of various generations who lost their homes of antiquity -- earthquake and then they had to leave (and probably scatter) so imagine how many neighbors never saw each other again.
"Don't forget the old so you can see the beauty in the new" - that's some great wisdom!
We love your adventures. We've mentioned y'all many times in our day. We're seeking discomfort more and more. Thanks for inspiring us!
The way we start talking to older people and assuming them as our grandpa and we just really want to listen more from them, from their experiences and their way of telling stories was so amazing. I just get emotional when i saw those old man their eyes were saying that they missed their loved ones and they want to be part of attention by others
nothing better than a Yes Theory video to end the night 🤩
Where do you live?
Same man
Or to start the day 😊
@@Livelaughandlaughmore Probably America
@@SomeonePrussian for me its 00:29 i live in The Netherlands
The quality of these videos get better every time! You guys should make this a Netflix series hahah
Woke netflix change the Italian Santa to a black man.
@@Rabbi_Noseberg_Shekelstein 😭 ong
@@Rabbi_Noseberg_Shekelstein Lol Netflix would def do it.
Staffan is always so adamant about pointing out that these were peoples homes, their lives, and the respect he shows for that. Not just another abandoned place. I love his soul 🥹🥹🩷
You have yourselves a little gem of an idea here fellas. Very touching and interesting story plus pretty damn cool traversing these old towns.
I'm convinced that Yes Theory and Seek Discomfort are the best channels on the internet, and that's coming from an internet veteran.
That's why a mega-corp like Yahoo sponsors their videos.
That's a huge thing - and tells you a lot about how popular and wholesome the channel is.
Good for them, I'm super happy the people running this channel are doing well for themselves, they deserve it!
I'd totally work for them if it was possible, that's a dream job - helping people and spreading love, lol - as a person with major anxiety they're doing what I can only dream of :)
Yes theory and the why files are my favorite channels on RUclips rn. The why files is fantastic, the way he puts his story's together is amazing.
웃 기시네
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ No.
ok
"If one forgets the old one will not see the beautiful in the new, and that's what one has to always remember about the past"
Man, it's been a super stressful couple of weeks. I some how strayed from the videos. I just came back to this and 6 minutes in, I caught myself saying outloud "man, i needed this!". Thanks for the uplifting content guys, truly. Happy New Year! Can't wait to see what this year brings to all of us! Whatever it may be, i'll make sure to say yes a lot more!!!
Beautiful places and awesome that someone is recording the stories that remain before they are gone. Easy sub with only a little bit of envy. Great work.
Thanks, guys, from the bottom of my heart. You're such an inspiration to all of us, and every time you release a new video, I know it's gonna be an incredible experience. You've helped me throughout some hard times, so thank you, again. I'm loving these last videos, but seeing you guys in my country, showing some of the infinite gems Italy hides, is a special feeling. So once more, thank you
Hearing the older people's stories is amazing
The older the more amazing it seems
Not always..
This was an amazing piece! Thank you! I so hope that these places experience life in some form or the other again, Respectful of their heritage and place in nature.
“Do not leave those things, those old memories, because out of one thing comes another, out of one thing comes a thing. Do not forget the old, because you will not see the beauty of the new”. That’s a beautifully deep quote.
There is a project to repopulate dying towns like this in Italy. The project is called 1 euro homes. It’s worth checking it out.
Yes, and i think it's not one project only. But the problem is that you have to pay for renovate the building and the italian construction laws are so complicate to follow that even italian people prefer to not get involved in the process. Bu5 you could be lucky and take a good house.... or... you can find slightly better old houses in judicial auctions, for a minimum price. Since you want to study italian laws you'd better take advantage of it ;-)
Repopulate with Africans.
Your comment suggests no direct experience with the Italian civil code, local regulations and dealing with the local "parallel government" to organise building material delivery. Italy makes California look like a libertarian paradise when it comes to development.
1 euro for the home and then thousands per year in taxes
My friend bought one of those places in a town called Vasto on the east coast! It's ready to go anytime we want to go visit. She goes once a year to pay the taxes and is waiting to move over their permanently 🙌🇨🇦❤
I visited my grandmas aunts home last summer. It was super tiny and had been abandoned for 40+ years. All of her belongings were just left there, it had a strange feeling to it. There were family photos on the walls, the food pantry still had unopened jars with food inside, there were newspapers for the 1960s and a pair of dentures on the floor. Now that grandmas brother has started renovating the house and he's going to make it his summer holiday home.
This is one of the best stories i have seen in long time, well done!
So cool that steffan is still here, love the guy!
as an italian person, i have to thank you. this is one of those hidden gems stories that i think the world should know more of
I hope I can visit Italy again soon!
I can't imagine the work that goes into these videos before you even get to the location. Like finding all these incredible, unheard of places. You expand the world for so many! It's amazing! Thank you for all you do!
Great video! Very nice shots throughout! I loved hearing the stories if the people as well.
What a truly magnificent video. 💚 Thank You for sharing. I too, see the potential, and also the hope of restorations. It's so nice to see that someone is doing it! That last town is so beautiful! 😊
18:30 "if one forgets the old, they will not see the beautiful in the new" brilliantly put
STAFFFFFFFFANNNN! LETS GOOOOO. What a treat :)
Your videos make me genuinely happy. Do them as long as you can please, like a tv show but better
2:43
"There's Thomas applying for citizenship" HAHAHAA idk why that cracked me up
Crazy… a few years ago i was in Roscigno because a part of my family lives nearby and I also saw the old man living there. You pulled out a very deep memorie out of my mind, thank you for that!
Thanks for the video!! A little side note of apice vecchio, actually, a few meters away from the ghost town people still live in newer buildings! I'm one of them and actually a fan of this channel, lived my whole life in apice vecchio and still get to see the beauty of it everyday. It's actually so sad that people never say that there's people living there still, maybe because most of us are foreigners and people who aren't considered "normal". But in reality, there's amazing people who could've told u the whole history of that beautiful ghost town and our memories as kids, without a translator even!! Still, so glad you guys came all the way here and so sad that I didn't know it because I definitely would've showed up!
You are living my fantasy. I absolutely love Italy and those hill towns. Thank you for sharing your experience.
It was good to see Stefan again. Such an incredible soul
I love when you bring Staffan! Such a genuine soul
These young men are kind, of good hearts, and this was a great video. Thank you.
For a person who's never gotten to travel I'm always excited to see how u visit new places
Does anyone else get excited when they see Staffan join on adventures? He always radiates such good energy and brings back that genuine friendship vibe that used to be in the old yes theory videos ❤ I hope he becomes a constant in the vidoes!!
MISS YOU GUYS! Can't wait for the next video already 😅❣️
Love how this was a great mix of the OG Yes Theory vids of exploring abandoned places and the new storytelling techniques that you use.
It’s always a good day when a Yes Theory video is released 😁
What's up Jesus
This is the amazing things about Italy. Even their disheveled and neglected buildings look like amazing works of art compared to structures in many other parts of the world. Even their state of disrepair is awe inspiring. Thank you for focusing on this part of Italy which seldom gets exposure. Enlightening travel should not just focus on the glamorous aspects of a culture, but should seek out the side that is not as picturesque or luxurious.
Yes, because they built them with love and pride in what they were making. Modern buildings are just built for developers to make money and to fall down in a few years, so they can rebuild them and make more money. Pitiful.
@@xyz.928 That is very true.
First time I have come across Yes Theory and I will search out the rest. Thoroughly enjoyable. Lovely fellas.Good filming.
Wow one of these locations are 40 minutes from where my nonna was born, super cool seeing this one! ❤🇮🇹 Forza Benevento
I loved that you explored some of Italy's ghost towns. If you guys are willing to continue it still exploring Italy, you guys should visit Sicilies ghost towns, which some are Poggioreale and Cunziria
im obsessed with abandoned towns and stuff like that, so that was so nice to watch
would have loved to know what the man living alone does all day
Happy Holidays
Don't you hate that RUclips is now showing full names of people? I feel like now we are kind of stuck in the same situation
Watch "Ghost Town Living" channel. The dude came a long way in rebuilding a ghost town.
He does nothing, dont you see he is a filthy and lazy man?
Every town in the world haves at least a few of them..! 😀
He smokes his pipe all day 🤣
As an Italian and passionate photographer of abandoned buildings I love this episode. There are so many beautiful abandoned places like this. There is one place that is almost getting there : it is called La città che muore. The city that is dying. It is Civita di Bagnoregio and its beautiful :)
Roman roads were equipped with everything necessary for long journeys. In fact, every ten miles or so, mutationes and mansiones, 'ante-litteram' rest stops, were located along the routes. The mutationes were changing stations for the horses, which were also equipped with veterinary surgeons. They also had a small tavern. The mansiones, on the other hand, were much larger service stations offering amenities such as food, accommodation and even thermal baths. The mansiones were so important that towns developed around some of them.
In Italy there are a lot of villages or town with a numerical name (Secondo,Terzo, Quarto, Settimo, Settime).
All those names are due to the distance from the nearest big town, three miles, four miles, seven miles or more.
Often they correspond to stopping post.
So now Italy has 6000 Ghost Towns because, well there is not much call for nice sporty chariots. Folks have all decided on Lamborghinis.
Yes , yes theory is back ❤️
@Dan Southwell Cap
I've been sending them emails since beginning of this year, ... they didn't reply 😔
There's a website called 'I Borghi più Belli d'Italia' where you can see all the so-called "borghi" (picturesque Medieval towns) scattered around the country.
Thank you for sharing this website. I found the town my great grandmother is from on it and was able to find a lot of interesting information on the town.
Just started watching your channel thanks for all the hard work love the content 😊
Thanks for making this video ❤
Steffan is my favorite. Lol his energy is amazing.
Yes Theory thank you for continuously providing a platform for us to experience unknown parts of the world and hear the untold stories of their people. As a travel agent, I often find myself referring to some of the things i've learnt from watching your videos in my consultations. Like you, I love being able to help people experience different parts of themselves through travel!
Beautiful video. Beautifully filmed, with such interesting but different content
Just stumbled across your channel, love this video! Already shared with friends and family, well done 👏
Wow! So loved the transformation of the abandoned villages. So much hope for these other villages around the world. Thank you ❤️❤️☺️ for sharing that hope.
Lets buy a town YES fans, make it YESTown and fix it up =) Make a community of good people all collected in the same place. Imagen the feeling of living in a town with people that want the best in life as neighbors on all corners and all around, taking care of everyone's needs and being nice, not because you have to, but because you want to
I'm down let's do this!
I would rather take this town and try to retrofit it for future land slides and earthquakes Then carefully remove valuables from the buildings before removing the stone and concrete infrastructure. These towns are ghost towns for a reason. I feel like It would take a lot of time, money, and efforts to clean up these ghost towns and protect then from future destruction
@@marley7659 good point
Everybody wants to live in cozy and friendly walkable communities, yet we all end up living in lonely flats or lifeless cul-de-sacs.
I mention in a post here that I saw a video a year ago where an Italian home in a village like this was being sold for one Euro! I don't know if they are still offering that;but I think it was the last town in this video. If you buy one that is already made livable, its in the 20 to 30 thousands. A lady from the US bought one.
It's a very interesting village.
I've traveled to Italy so many times, but I don't think this channel is the only one who can find a place like this. I enjoyed watching it today. I think Italy is also a beautiful country😄
Your nickname is intriguing though! If I may ask, are you sicilian or south korean?
I love you thomas and your Team :) Great work keep it Up. Thanks for sharing all this with us :)
Merry Christmas guys! Enjoy your family time - thanks for all the videos this year 💙
So nice to see Stephan again with his positive energy! Looove the special and touching encounters you made! Nice to visit Italy differently! Great topic! Viva Italia! Grazie mille!
what a beautiful end to such a sad story. thank you :)
I Love all of your content ,been watching for years on and off as RUclips shows come and go in my daily life . Yours makes me cry ( as a man ) .I love the travel aspect mostly as someone that works alot and hasn't travelled in years since my kids were babies.. They are now 21 and 19 . The channel reminds me of the show from PBS,"GLOBE TREKKER" . I used to party all night and fall asleep watching this amazing travel show much like yours w an antenna in my first apartment in 2000-2001 . This was obviously before internet . Thanks for the excellent content !
I enjoy the language diversity in your videos and that you add subtititles. I love how you make people feel special and you show them to the world. Great video once again!
