Built on the foundations of an ancient Byzantine defensive tower and remodeled several times starting from the 16th century until the 18th century, the period in which it took on its current form desired by the feudal lord Oronzo Leuzzi. Declared a building of cultural interest since 1987, it deserves to be visited without any doubt.

The Menhir of Montevergine is yet another example of how pagan elements have managed to mix over the centuries within Christianized places. The monolith, which in the past reached 2 meters or more in height, is in fact located close to the sanctuary of the Madonna di Montevergine, in the exact point where an underground river would flow. The apparition of the Blessed Virgin, which occurred in 1595, created an aura of sacredness and mystery around this place, which is still capable of enchanting many visitors today.

"A golden hen and seven chicks also all made of gold are the prize for those who manage, without hesitation, to follow up on the old woman's riddles. That old woman who lives there and appears in the presence of those who dare, close of the longest days of the year, wandering around its boulders" Archaic place of great charm. Legends make these megaliths come alive. Unfortunately the olive grove that surrounded it has been lost due to the well-known xylella but it is hoped that it will be redeveloped in some way because it deserves to be valorised.

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".

The baronial palace is the result of various interventions and expansion works, which ended in the eighteenth century with the feudal lord Oronzo Leuzzi. It incorporates an ancient building built in 1576 by Pietro Massa, on top of another already existing one, that is a defense tower from the Byzantine era. This palace became the center of Collepassese political and cultural activity under the hegemony of Baroness Aurora Leuzzi. Restoration works took place in 1992 and 2006. It has been a building of cultural interest since 1987, the year of the transfer of ownership to the Municipality

Story # 1 In the land of the Messapians, among the sacred rocks, one day the Epimelid nymphs were soaring in dances with sweet and sensual movements. The young Messapi, who grazed their flocks in that place, were conquered but, unaware of being in the presence of divine creatures, they challenged them, presuming to be superior in dance. At the end of the confrontation, despite the unequivocal superiority of the nymphs, the shepherds naively claimed a victory that in any case would never be recognized, their fate had already been sealed at the moment of the challenge and the nymphs, with their curses, transformed them into plants (olive trees) that the desperation of the young people promptly began to contort . In teaching: do not challenge the gods.

Torcito, in the ancient feud called CERCETO, was destroyed and razed to the ground by the Saracens. The farm, and the whole park, is crossed by the ancient and famous Via Francigena. A stopping point for pilgrims, it still has an ancient road layout dug into the outcropping rock.
