Gravina in Puglia Private Tour
Gravina in Puglia Private Tour
At the time of your choice, we'll meet in Piazza Benedetto XIII to begin a private tour of Gravina in Puglia, a town nestled in a crevasse between spectacular gorges. Ready to explore?
We'll start our itinerary by visiting the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, an interesting example of a mixture of architectural styles including late Romanesque, Renaissance and Baroque. Did you know that it was destroyed by a huge fire and then again later by a strong earthquake?
Next, we'll continue in the direction of the Church of Purgatorio, also known as the Church of Santa Maria del Suffragio. Looking at the façade, we'll immediately notice the two skeletons on the tympanum of the entrance door... You'll learn all about why they're there during the tour!
Then, we'll enter the fascinating medieval neighborhoods of Fondovico and Piaggio, which together make up the oldest part of the city. Walking through their winding narrow streets, we'll find ourselves at Gravina's rock church. We'll visit the spectacular Church of San Michele, a temple of pre-Christian origin carved into the tuff and frescoed with fascinating Byzantine paintings.
Finally, we'll cross the Viadotto Madonna della Stella, a bridge dating back to the 18th century from which we can admire spectacular panoramas of the ravine... Don't forget your camera!
After an exciting two-hour tour, we'll say goodbye and call it a day.
