What To See near Acquaviva delle Fonti

Adelfia (12 Km)

Torre normanna

The Norman Tower of Adelfia was built between 1147 and 1153 together with the castle, by Alfonso Balbiano. The Tower has a height of 19 meters. The main function of the tower was to defend and report in the event of assaults or disasters those seeking rescue. The tower passed into the hands of several feudal lords up to the Marquises Nicolai. Today it is well preserved.

Adelfia (12 Km)

Castello Marchesale

The Marchesale Castle, in the Municipality of Adelfia, was built in 1390 by the will of Nicolò Dottula, who remained the owner until 1417. Inside the castle, you can find a small church with relics of Christian martyrs, several salons and dungeons. Today, the castle is home to the homonymous Palace, rich in beautiful frescoes.

Adelfia (13 Km)

Castello delle Fascine

The Castello delle Fasine is also known by the name of Casino Don Cataldo. It was built, towards the end of the seventeenth century, by the Marquis Carlo Tommaso De Nicolai for agricultural purposes, to be closer to the land he owns. At first glance it looks like a fortress, but the presence of open loggias on the courtyard suggests its rural and practical functionality.

Turi (15 Km)

Palazzo Marchesale Venusio

The Venusio Marchesale Palace was built between the 10th and 11th centuries in the historic center of Turi. The Venusio Marquises made changes during the 17th century, thus expanding the structure of the building. Today the Palace is called the “National Monument” and is home to cultural events, concerts, as well as banquets and receptions.

Toritto (18 Km)

Castello Toritto

The Toritto Castle is thought to have been built in the Peuceta era. During the 15th and 16th centuries, a tower was added called the Norman Tower, which was declared, in 1938, a National Monument. Currently, the Castle is privately owned.

Rutigliano (18 Km)

Torre Normanna

The Norman Tower, part of the homonymous Castle, is the largest tower of the 4 towers that make up the castle. The tower took this name because it was renovated in the first half of the eleventh century by the Normans. It has a quadrangular base structure and a height of 34 meters. Inside it is decorated with beautiful frescoes. The tower is the historical and cultural symbol of the city.

Bari (18 Km)

Castello di Ceglie

The Castle of Ceglie was built around the eleventh century, but little or nothing is known about its history. The only certainty is that in 1156, it was the home that welcomed the inhabitants of Bari who escaped the city razed to the ground by the Normans. Subsequently, the building was attached to other structures, thus losing its original features.

Modugno (19 Km)

Castello di Balsignano

It was built in the early fifteenth century on the ruins of another building. In fact, a historical document informs us that it had already existed since 1186 and the Church of San Michele was also included in it. The castle has a massive and important structure. Inside there is a beautiful fresco, “The Madonna Enthroned with Child”. Now it's privately owned and it's in great condition.

Bari (20 Km)

Masseria Torre La Monaca

It was built around the 13th century, a period when the first testimonies of the tower were received. The base is also part of it, characterized by a staircase with a balcony, the lunate ring and a caditoia. Unfortunately, over the centuries, it has suffered various damages, in fact, some parts are missing because they collapsed. Despite this, the tower is still open to visitors.
