メザーニェの洞窟・トップ6

A pleasant medieval village. In addition to the historic center and the very characteristic Jewish quarter, the Castello Svevo and the Cathedral of S. Maria Assunta are definitely worth a visit.

It is located close to the historic center of Brindisi, also known as the "big castle"

Built on a hill, the historic village dominates the entire city and the valley. With its winding, uphill streets, old houses with faded paintwork and huge castle, Oria has the look and feel of a true medieval village.

The certain evidence of the construction of the Norman Swabian castle of Mesagne dates back to the beginning of the 11th century, when, with the Norman reconquest of Puglia, Roberto d'Altavilla known as Guiscardo erected a castrum to defend the city (1062-1063). The term castrum was synonymous not only with "fortified place", but also with "jurisdictional, military, economic, religious center...".

The castle stands on the islet of S. Andrea, a natural defensive bastion, and was built in 1445, commissioned by Ferdinand I of Aragon to his son Alfonso. The expansion desired by Philip II of Austria in 1583 encircles the entire side of the island. The castle has various titles, Castello di Mare to distinguish it from that of Terra (Svevo), Castello Alfonsino or Aragonese due to the family that built it and Castello Rosso because in the hours of sunset the structure acquires an extraordinary reddish color due to the tuff with which was built.
