info@pugliaprivatetour.comCastel del Monte is the most famous castle built by the eclectic Swabian Emperor Frederick II. It is an Unesco site. The castle stands lonely on a hill near Andris. It was built following an unusual octagonal layout that, along with other features of the castle, have fueled countless theories about its real function. The tour continues with Andria (always faithful to Fredrick II as it is written on St. Andrew’s gate), the cathedral, St. Augustine church built by the Knights Templar. At the end of the itinerary, we will visit Trani and its stunning cathedral, dedicated to St. Nicola Pellegrino, that overlooks the sea, one of the finest examples of Apulian Romanesque architecture, the Swabian castle, its interesting city center with the Jewish heritage, the picturesque port with several fish restaurants.
