Amid Baroque cathedrals, masserie (fortified farm estates), castles, and towers overlooking an unspoiled sea, Puglia is an ancient land, shaped by centuries of history and art that have left unmistakable traces. This is where Lecce lies, in the deepest, most rural South, marked by a slow pace of life, influenced by Magna Graecia and Byzantine rule, in the heart of Salento, rich in enchanting villages and breathtaking landscapes. Lecce, the “queen of the Baroque,” is a captivating city, one of the most charming in Southern Italy. Walking through the alleys of Lecce, everything is bathed in dazzling light thanks to the blue of the endless sky and the golden color of Lecce stone which, because it is so workable, made it possible to write the history of the Baroque. Here, where art is everywhere—among churches and noble palaces that fascinate with their unexpected stage-like settings—where the stone’s golden hue soothes and leads along almost meditative routes, no one can leave Lecce without admiring Piazza del Duomo at night. You simply must. You will understand why. Founded by the Messapians, in Roman times it was called Lupiae. In the Middle Ages, the city’s fate was tied to the Norman dynasty, but it was under Spanish rule that Lecce entered its period of greatest splendor. Set amid lace-like pale stonework and Baroque churches, portals and the ancient elegance of palaces—here, where everything is harmonious—the Baroque reaches its apotheosis in the splendid Basilica of Santa Croce which, together with the Convent of the Celestines, is one of the major architectural complexes. A city that tells of history, culture, traditions linked to ancient customs, and a simple, genuine cuisine, with typical dishes to fall in love with. Just 30 minutes from Brindisi Airport and a few kilometers south of the Itria Valley, Lecce sits almost halfway between the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, both reachable in just a few minutes.
