Things to do in Candela Italy – what to see attractions and activities

Set up in the eighteenth-century Palazzo D'Autilia, the Museum preserves archaeological finds from the 9th century BC until the Middle Ages (Baroque with geometric decoration from the Daunia period, Greek ceramics of the V-III century. B.C., bronze necklaces and fibulae). The “Pasquale Rosario” collection offers a journey into the history of the ancient currency within which the local mint active in the pre-Roman era also fits.

The Museum is located on the first floor of the former Monastery of Santa Maria del Popolo. The museum consists of various rooms, with paintings, sculptures, valuable liturgical objects and silk vestments embroidered in gold. The museum was opened on 24 July 2007 and is visited by many tourists.

The castle of Deliceto dates back to the 11th century and belongs to the Middle Ages. It is located in the municipality of Deliceto, in the province of Foggia, in Puglia. The castle had a triangular shape, but, after its reconstruction, it took the form of an irregular trapezoid. The building has special decorative architectural elements, typical of noble residences and is surrounded by picturesque villages. The castle welcomed noble families, such as Aragon. It is currently open to the public.
