With the singular shape of a starry polygon, the Angevin-Aragonese Castle imposingly dominates the coast of Mola di Bari.

An interesting and certain thing. In 1690, the chapel served as a place for the bodies of Conversano citizens affected by the plague epidemic. This disease, called the Black Death, has claimed over 200 million victims to date!

The chapel of Santa Caterina is a national monument of Italy, located at the entrance to Conversano - an Apulian city of ancient origin. There are basically two concepts regarding the time of construction and the person of Saint Catherine. Some historians support the thesis that it was created around the mid-11th century and is dedicated to the Christian martyr Catherine of Alexandria - a saint of the Catholic and Orthodox Church, whose cult spread to Puglia at that time. Other historians support the thesis that the chapel was built by Count Giulio Antonio Acquaviva in the mid-15th century, and the building itself was an act of tribute and affection for his wife, Caterina Orsini Del Balzo. The dating of the building, consistent with these concepts, places its construction in different historical times, 4 centuries, 400 years apart!

The village of Mola di Bari is a fishing-tourist town. The port is active all year round and there are many restaurants where you can taste the catch of the day. The last weekend of July the octopus festival is held and you can taste dishes based on octopus and fresh fish.

Path with little traffic and very suggestive; a provincial country road that connects San Vito and Conversano. If you follow it in the direction of Conversano, get ready for a climb of about 3km where you can test yourself 💪

Conversano is a municipality in the metropolitan city of Bari and stands on the first hills of the Murgia, about 200 meters above sea level. It has very ancient origins, dating back to the Iron Age, and was the seat of a Norman county and then of various noble families. For this reason it has a rich historical and artistic heritage, including the castle, the cathedral, and the monastery of San Benedetto.

The port of Mola di Bari is an important fishing and tourist port in Puglia, with two piers that enclose the old port and an area reserved for fishing and pleasure boats. There are numerous bars and restaurants offering typical Molise seafood specialities, in particular octopus, of which a festival is held every year in July.
