Ravello was founded by Romans looking for a safe place during the period of instability due to the barbarian invasions. From the 9th century it was first part of the Duchy of Amalfi and then of the Maritime Republic of Amalfi.

Ravello has inspired poets and writers, such as Giovanni Boccaccio who dedicated a short story to him in the Decameron. Today Ravello is known as the "City of Music" for the many internationally renowned musical events, including the Ravello Festival, which attract enthusiasts to the area.
