Grottaglie Private Tour

Having met up at Porta San Giorgio at the agreed time, we'll set off on our private tour of Grottaglie's monumental and cultural heritage.

Our guided tour will begin with the town's historic centre, which is full of palaces and churches. We'll visit the 14th-century Mother Church of Grottaglie, the town's most famous religious building.

Next, we'll move on to Episcopo Castle, built in the 14th century, with a rectangular keep and an eastern sector, later enlarged with a Baroque façade.

The former stables of this fortress house the Ceramic Museum, where we will learn about an artistic tradition that spans centuries, viewing archaeological finds, traditional and contemporary ceramics, maiolica, and nativity scenes.

Afterwards, we'll visit the nearby ceramics district along the San Giorgio ravine. Here, master ceramists established workshops and kilns in former oil mills, contributing to Grottaglie's fame as "the city of ceramics".

After spending 2 hours exploring, we'll conclude our private tour of Grottaglie.
