Apulia is located on the adriatic and on the ioniam  sea in the South-East of the Italian peninsula.










Castel del Monte (Andria)   The most impressive and best-Known of the Apulia castles. In 1240 Frederik II began the construction of his hunting residence this superb, octagonal castle

with towers, also octagonal, at its eight corners.







Cattedrale di San Nicola (Trani)

It is the famous monument in the small city of Trani. It is devoted to San Nicola   

Pellegrino.

The construction, initiated in 1096 was finished in the XIII century. Its prospectus

is the most imposing.

Built to a few footsteps from the sea, it constitutes an ancient beauty.













The Trulli, called Casedde (little houses) by local people, are unique

Buildings: they are entirely built with the local limestone, used also for

the whitewash covering their walls. Unfortunately, the local master

masons able to build a trullo are gradually disappearing.

A trullo is like a doll's house: tiny and neat, cool and very simple.

Once only farmers used to live in them, today they are increasingly used as

Summer houses.
