In Lecce, Piazza Sant'Oronzo is the main meeting place and the place where many of the shows and musical events in the city take place. On the floor of the square there is a mosaic that represents the city coat of arms with the "She-wolf under the holm oak tree", one of the symbols of the city as well as of the football team.

It is worth mentioning here that the best-preserved Roman amphitheater, surpassing even the Flavian Roman amphitheater in this respect, is the amphitheater located in eastern Tunisia, in El Jem. It is the most spectacular Roman building in North Africa.

The bell tower is considered the best viewing point in Lecce. You go to the top by elevator. From there you can admire the panorama of the city and the Adriatic Sea, and on sunny and clear days you can even see the mountains in Albania.

The Campanile del Duomo, made entirely of Lecce stone, is the tallest bell tower on the Salentine Peninsula at 72 meters high, which is roughly the height of two ten-story buildings. The construction of the bell tower took 20 years and ended in 1682.
