トッレカンネからトッレサンレオナルド自然公園までの海岸砂丘周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ17

The site chosen for the construction of the tower was already known in the past. The place is cited as Mutatio ad Decimum, that is, a post station for changing horses on the Via Traiana in Roman times between the city of Egnazia and the mansio Speluncas (Torre Santa Sabina) before reaching Brindisi. The tower was built by the Aragonese. It was later definitively called the tower of San Leonardo as it fell within the land owned by the abbey of San Leonardo di Siponto. The tower was completed in 1569 and built in a square shape to allow the use of more cannons. Once its original function ceased, the tower was restored without historical-artistic attention to the structure and materials, and its appearance was completely remodeled. The only original part is the lower, truncated pyramid base, on the sea side of the structure, on the rear side. Today its intended use is private. [ref.

The site chosen for the tower's construction was already known in the past. The location is cited as Mutatio ad Decimum, meaning a post station for changing horses on the Via Traiana in Roman times between the city of Egnatia and the mansio Speluncas (Torre Santa Sabina) before reaching Brindisi. The tower was built by the Aragonese. It was later definitively named the Tower of San Leonardo because it was located on land owned by the Abbey of San Leonardo di Siponto. The tower was completed in 1569 and built square to accommodate the use of more cannons. After its original function ceased, the tower was restored without any historical or artistic consideration for its structure or materials, and its appearance was completely remodeled. The only original part is the lower, truncated pyramid base on the seaward side of the structure, at the rear. Today, its intended use is private. [ref.

Unique in the area, the Dolmen of Montalbano is a very ancient megalithic monument, probably from the early Bronze Age, 4000 years ago! Linked to ancient magical rites, astronomical studies or the cult of the dead ... its history is lost in the mists of time and increases its mystery and uniqueness. It is immersed in the silvery green of the secular olive trees of the Montalbano countryside (fraction of Fasano, Br), but it is located 5 km from the sea, in a tourist area to visit .. rich in beautiful Apulian farmhouses and an extraordinary sea. https://www.fondoambiente.it/luoghi/dolmen-di-montalbano-fasano

Cave-villages, cave-churches, cave-shops, trapeti-caves belong to the civil, religious and artistic history of this region. The suggestive and unusual rocky paths reveal the treasures of underground Puglia hidden in the ravines of the ground. The rock settlements offer a real journey through time and space. An intertwining of paths and caves, a village built on various levels of the rocky ridges that host them, where it is still possible to reconstruct the life of the communities that lived there. The well, the oil mill, the cemetery and the church around which life pulsated highlight the links existing between the underground settlements and the territory, the caves not only as places of mystical asceticism but also centers of life and work.

Stretch of wetland that develops on the coastal side of the Park, where it is possible to observe the presence of a watercourse characterized by the presence of bridges that lead to a fish farming plant. Everything is separated from the beach, thanks to the presence of the typical sand dunes and Mediterranean vegetation that develop in the area. Over the years, an ideal habitat for local fauna has been created here, especially for birds and birds of prey that meet during the warm seasons, and which in turn increasingly attract birdwatchers to this area.
