It is the capital of the province of Cosenza.Thanks to its cultural past, the city is known as the Athens of Calabria. The Cosentian Academy, for example, was one of the very first academies to be founded in Italy (1511). To this day, Cosenza remains an important cultural centre with its numerous libraries, museums, cinemas, theatres and the University of Calabria."To call the town picturesque is to use an inadequate word," wrote George Gissing in 1901. "At every step, from the opening of the main street at the hill foot up to the stern medieval castle crowning its height, one marvels and admires."
