Puglia has an extraordinary history of change, invaded by Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Normans, Svabians and Spanish who have all left indelible traces of their civilizations.
No town or city is the same so check out where to go and what to see.
And please don’t be put off by the modern apartment blocks on the outskirts of many towns, the old town centres are always worth searching out. Head for the Centro and Municipio and you’ll be sure of finding the heart of the city.
