In August 2007 Oreste Di Cristino held a photographic exhibition at Sant'Angelo del Pesco with the theme "History and Memory" which showed images of the past of the people of Sant’Angelo and their town. Many people brought him copies of their family photos and thus gave him the possibility to create a "Photographic history archive". Almost the entire town came to see the exhibition and enthusiastically participated in the projection of the closing ceremony of "viviSant'Angelo 2007" thus contibuting to the enormous success of the event. What wonderful memories. People that saw themselves again after many years; others with tears in their eyes seeing dear persons, friends and acquaintances no longer with us. This is when Oreste had the idea to publish the entire collection of photographs, more than 1300, collected and reproduced in digital format during the unforgettable "viviSant'Angelo 2007" and to make it accessible to all through this site, the historical heritage and tradition of all the people of Sant’Angelo.
