Trulli - or trullo when you’re talking about just one dwelling - were initially built to provide temporary field shelters and storehouses. Over time they also became permanent dwellings for agricultural families and labourers of smallholdings. The simple traditional lime whitewash that decorates the trulli’s exterior complements the local geology and pastoral landscapes. To protect against the elements and balance the temperature all year round, the trulli walls are incredibly thick, made up of a double skin filled with rubble. Similarly, the doorways and windows are small. These iconic rural dwellings began appearing as early as the 14th century, and their popularity originated because of a 15th century decree that made urban settlers pay taxes to the crown under feudal rule. If the king’s inspectors came collecting, the villagers could easily demolish these inexpensive buildings into a pile of stones and hide in the forest, and then rebuild them once they’d gone.

The Church of San Michele in Triglie was built on the Triglio hill, between Crispiano and Statte, between 1722 and 1746, by the will of the Bitetto family, who dedicated this place sacred to San Michele Arcangelo for a family devotion. The building rises above the remains of an ancient cave dedicated to the Saint that can still be visited today and decorated with frescoes by modern era. The church was later called the church of San Michele in Triglie from the name of the Contrada Triglie which hosts it and which takes its name from the ravine of the same name. The new chapel of San Michele in Triglie was instead built at the end of the nineteenth century by the Coneviva family, who inherited the farm from the Blasi family. Various historical events have seen the sacred place stripped of its sacred furnishings, around in 1841 it even became a warehouse / barn and was forbidden to worship in 1958. Thanks to the devotion and perseverance of the Coneviva family, the church was restored and today it is possible to visit it.
