Исторические церкви в Апулии

Apulia's Historic Churches

Apulia’s religious landscape is defined by the distinct Apulian Romanesque style, seen in the limestone facades of Bari and Trani, and the elaborate "Barocco Leccese" found in Lecce’s Santa Croce. This collection spans centuries of faith, featuring the UNESCO-listed cave sanctuary of San Michele on Mount Gargano and the massive pilgrimage site of San Giovanni Rotondo. From the 11th-century mosaic floors in Otranto to the Byzantine-influenced frescoes in Galatina, these sites preserve the region's diverse cultural heritage.
