Alberobello

Overview

Made unmistakable by the many pinnacles that announce its presence, Alberobello is a village in the heart of the Murgia and has been recognised as a World Heritage Site for its characteristic historic centre. The centre of the town, in fact, is entirely made up of trulli, typical dry-stone dwellings whitewashed with quicklime and made immediately recognisable by their cone-shaped roofs, on which there is no shortage of symbols that still retain an aura of mystery, including pierced hearts, crosses and zodiac symbols. The Rione Monti, with its thousand trulli, is the oldest area of the town, while in the Rione Aia Piccola are Casa Pezzolla, a complex of 15 trulli now housing the Museum of the Territory, and the Trullo Sovrano, where shows and concerts are organised, made unique by its spectacular setting. Unique in its kind, Alberobello is a place to discover with a traveller's soul, a place to experience and be bewitched by.
