Cisternino Guided Tour

Once we've met in Piazza Garibaldi, we will commence our guided tour of Cisternino. Our itinerary includes visiting the Mother Church of San Nicola, a 12th-century structure built on the site of an ancient basilica, notable for its neoclassical façade from 1848. Following this, we'll take a moment at a viewpoint to see the Itria Valley along with the Trulli houses and olive trees in the area.

The tour will proceed through Cisternino’s streets, highlighting its "spontaneous architecture" and historic noble buildings, as we stroll through picturesque alleys featuring traditional Apulian chianche stones.

Next, we will visit the majestic Norman tower, dating back to the 11th century, which rises 55 feet (17 meters) on one of the highest hills in the Murge plateau. We will also see the Church of San Quirico and Giulitta, an impressive 18th-century building associated with a local legend. After 2 hours of history, we will conclude our guided tour.
