Trabocchi, San Vito Ciento, Adriatic Sea coast in the province of Chieti in the Abruzzo region of central Italy

---

Trabocchi on the quay in San Vito Ciento, a town on a stretch of the Adriatic Sea coast in the province of Chieti in the Abruzzo region of central Italy. Trabocchi were invented in the 18th century by Jewish families of fishermen on the coast of San Vito. Today the trabocchi were reconstructed and enlarged with respect to the previous originals; most are no longer used for fishing, instead operate as fish restaurants.
