Paterriti

Machine-translated from the Italian article

Paterriti (or Patarriti) is a small hamlet of the municipality of Motta San Giovanni, with about 450 inhabitants, located at 410 m above sea level in the hill area overlooking Pellaro (in the southern part of the city of Reggio Calabria), facing northwest over the city and the Strait of Messina. Until 1927 it was a hamlet belonging to the municipality of Pellaro. Today, instead, it belongs both to the municipality of Reggio Calabria (from which it is about 15 km away) and to that of Motta San Giovanni (from which it is 5 km away), whose boundaries are delimited by the main road that runs through the center of the village.
