    Norman-Swabian Castle is a fortification that rises in the medieval area of Sannicandro di Bari, among the characteristic houses with external stairways. It was surrounded by an ancient Swabian moat which was filled and transformed into a street only in 1836. Today we can appreciate it in its composition in two distinct parts, one in the other, structured in different periods but not very distant from each other: the Norman one. and that Sveva. The various essays, by the Archaeological Superintendency of Bari, revealed the presence of ancient pre-Norman trenches inside the court, with a fortified nucleus, probably surrounded by an outer wall. The Longobard and Byzantine coins found in the foundation emplecton confirm the seamless presence of the site starting from the 9th century.
