Taranto

⭐ 8.8

Two-thousand-year-old city between two seas, the cradle of Magna Grecia.

The Spartans founded it in the 8th century BC as Taras, and it became one of the great cities of Magna Grecia before falling to Rome in 272 BC. The MArTA archaeological museum holds one of the richest collections. In the Mar Piccolo, mussels have been farmed for centuries: the cozze tarantine are famous. During Holy Week, the processions of the Addolorata (Thursday) and the Mysteries (Friday) set the city’s pace.

À PROPOS DE Taranto

Taranto is a large port city in southern Puglia, located between the Ionian Sea and the Mar Piccolo. Founded in Greek times, it boasts a significant archaeological heritage and a strong maritime identity.

The city is divided between the Città Vecchia (Old Town), situated on an island, and the modern districts. Museums, castles, bridges, and waterfronts shape the visit, blending ancient history, naval traditions, and local life.

The Spartans founded it in the 8th century BC as Taras, and it became one of the great cities of Magna Grecia before falling to Rome in 272 BC. The MArTA archaeological museum holds one of the richest collections. In the Mar Piccolo, mussels have been farmed for centuries: the cozze tarantine are famous. During Holy Week, the processions of the Addolorata (Thursday) and the Mysteries (Friday) set the city’s pace.
