Martano, one of the symbolic places of Salento Greece, also widely known internationally, in winter turns out to be a quiet Salento village immersed in its silence and slow rhythms without the lively coming and going of people that swarm the historic core of the summer periods.

Among the most fascinating aspects of Puglia there are undoubtedly the large palaces, castles and farms, symbols of a past of nobles and slaves. Among these, the Baronial Palace of Collepasso stands out, of still uncertain origins but whose artistic and historical value is very evident. Built with typical Lecce stone, the clean square shapes date back to the Norman-Swabian domination, while the square in front is very reminiscent of the Spanish "plaza de armas".

"The Castle of Corigliano d'Otranto represents, according to the words of G. Bacile di Castiglione, the «most beautiful monument of military and feudal architecture of the beginning of the sixteenth century in the Terra d'Otranto», and certainly constitutes the most successful example of the transition from medieval square towers to round Renaissance ones. The adaptation to the new war requirements, with the introduction of gunpowder, therefore led, in the sixteenth century, to the architectural revolution of the castle, which was equipped with a deep moat and agile and effective defensive structures, such as the curtains with battlements and the four circular towers, embellished with friezes, dedicated to four saints linked to four cardinal virtues".
