Sant’Agata di Puglia stands at 794 m above sea level, between the Calaggio and Frugno streams in the Monti Dauni. It is called the “loggia delle Puglie” for its wide-open views. Its castle, of Lombard origin, restored by the Normans and then reinforced by the Swabians and Angevins, overlooks the village. You walk through the medieval center, then look out over the plain from the high points. The village received the Touring Club’s Orange Flag in 2002 and Slow Food recognition in 2016.
