Cassano delle Murge is a walled town in the Murge, within the Alta Murgia National Park. The center is quick to explore: narrow streets, Palazzo Miani-Perotti, a late Baroque palace (1763 design) housing a picture gallery and library, the mother church Santa Maria Assunta, and the convent Santa Maria degli Angeli (1469). For fresh air, the Mercadante forest, developed from 1928 onward, is located in the municipality. The town is also known for its willow and rush basketry. Plan half a day.
