The area of Imperial Puglia can boast some of the finest examples of the Apulian Romanesque architecture (such as the stunning cathedral of Trani), picturesque fishing ports, an important Jewish medieval giudecca (now there are only 2 of the 4 old Synagogues left: the Sinagoga Grande guests a museum and the Sinagoga Scola Nova, since 2005, has been returned to its worship use after centuries of abandon or catholic use), Knights Templar heritage, excellent food and wine. The Unesco site of Castel del Monte is the most famous castle built by the eclectic Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II of Swabia (called "stupor mundi"). It stands lonely up on a hill in the countryside of Andria and it has been built following an unusual octagonal layout that, along with other features of the castle, have fueled countless theories about its real function. I'll share my long experience (as tour guide, nature guide, wine and extravirgin olive oil sommelier) with you to tailor the itinerary depending on your interests.
- We can start with a quick visit to Molfetta to enjoy its historic city center, the picturesque port and the authentic atmosphere of the fish market. - In Trani we will visit the cathedral, the old town with the port and the Jewish area (it's also possible to visit the interior of the Synagogues but we need to book in advance). - At lunch I suggest a fish meal (a gourmet sandwich or a served lunch) in the picturesque area of the port. - In the afternoon the Unesco site of Castel del Monte (a castle symbol of Puglia with its unique octagonal layout and its mysteries). It's possible to modify the tour with the visit of the archeological site of the epic victory of Hannibal over the Romans, a culinary experience such as the visit to the Museo del Confetto (the sweetest musuem in Italy), a winery (to taste excellent wines made with indigenous grapes: Nero di Troia, Bombino bianco/nero), an extra virgin olive oil mill, dairy (the burrata cheese has been invented here).
