Trinitapoli

⭐ 7.9

Bronze Age Hypogea, Sanctuary of Madonna di Loreto, and shores of ancient Lake Salpi

Salapia, an ancient city on a lagoon peninsula, is at the origin of local history. In the 4th century, Salpi became an episcopal see. The Order of Malta held the commandery from 1589 to 1798; the commanders’ palace passed to the municipality in 1854. The Casale took the name Trinitapoli in 1863, and the municipality joined the province of Barletta-Andria-Trani in 2004. The Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Loreto, attested in 1204, became diocesan in 1971. Here, people primarily live off fruits, vegetables, and vineyards.

À PROPOS DE Trinitapoli

Trinitapoli, in the province of Barletta-Andria-Trani, is worth visiting for its Bronze Age hypogea: the Hypogeum of the Bronzes and the Hypogeum of the Ivories, located within an archaeological park, and the Civic Archaeological Museum of the Hypogea. In the town center, see the Chiesa Madre Santo Stefano, opened for worship in 1899, and the former palace of the Commanders of the Order of Malta, now the town hall. An urban park borders the southern shore of the ancient Lake Salpi. Allow half a day for your visit.
