    The castle of Lecce, also known as the Castle of Charles V, is a fortress located in the historic center of the city built in the 12th century as the residence of the counts of Lecce. In the 16th century, the emperor Charles V ordered a restructuring of the castle to adapt it to the new defensive and symbolic needs. The castle thus assumed its current form, with four corner bastions and a wall that incorporated the previous medieval structure.
