    Hiking

    Entering the beautiful Villa Comunale di Lucera (FG), rich in vegetation, palm trees and oleanders, you can see in front of the imposing Svevo-Angioina Fortress, called Castello di Lucera. The castle dominates the promontory, a crucial point for controlling the surrounding valley. Able to block attacks from Troia (FG), Monti Dauni and the Gargano.

    Restoration and expansion measures are planned for the Swabian-Angevin fortress of Lucera.

    On the summit of Albano Hill, above which the acropolis of Roman Lucera once stood, Frederick II began construction of his palace at the beginning of the 12th century to control the forced relocation of Saracens from Sicily to Lucera.

    View of the ruins of the castle of Frederick the Second. Unfortunately only ruins.
