Old and Patinated

Tocco da Casauria in the Province of Pescara in the Abruzzo region of Central Italy…

Crowned with a castle dating back to the 12th century, the ancient town centre boasts an array of bars, cafes and restaurants; a post office; a florist; various mini-markets, bakeries, butcher, off-licence, pizzerias, greengrocers and an excellent gelateria (freshly made Italian ice cream). There’s even a lively and welcoming Irish Pub.

And behind this remarkable and beautiful door?

I haven’t a clue, but with it’s wonderful patination it could be an exhibit in a gallery – or at least the entrance to one.
