Posted in Byzantine Salento collection komoot.it/collection/1811756/-salento-bizantino - I believe that most of the Byzantine frescoes are visible outside the cathedral. they are very easily identifiable because they are exposed towards the square present there. Some well-preserved frescoes are also visible in the side entrance to the cathedral. Castro, a charming village rich in history. hotelpanoramico.net/salento/87-la-cattedrale-di-castro-un-capolavoro-nato-sulle-rovine-di-antichi-luoghi-di-culto

Spectacular Byzantine basilica in the historic center of Castro... you have to climb quite a bit to deserve it.
