Noblesse Oblige – Apulian Castles
Dreaming of a kingly experience? Discover the most fascinating castles of Puglia!
Let the mystery of Castel del Monte unfold, summer residence of Frederick II of Swabia and today part of the UNESCO heritage, built according to astrological calculations that have not been unveiled yet. The wonderful area of Barletta, known for the Disfida, battle between French and Italians in 1503, for its cathedral and its majestic castle wait for discovery. Through Bisceglie, one can go south to the castle and the old city of the Apulian capital Bari, well known for its St Nicholas, worshipped by Catholics and Ortodox. Then the infamous earl of Conversano will capture your attention with his legends whilst in Monopoli one can walk between the castle and the sea.
Part of the Apulian experience, one can also enjoy the area around Brindisi with the fortress of Carovigno and a visit to the Messapian centre of Mesagne, the fairy tale city of Oria, and the massive castle of Massafra will complete your appetite to be king of your holiday!
