Walking tour of the Trulli Fairytale Village of Alberobello.
Alberobello is a small village that is almost 50 km far from Bari. It stands on limestone rocks, and it is well known as one of the main towns of Itria Valley.
In 1996 the town became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. That title has been conquered thanks to the beauty of Trulli, which are the typical white houses characterized by a conical stone roof.
Two of the most famous trulli are called “Casa D’Amore” and the “Siamese Trullo”. There’s even a Church built as a trullo! It is the Church of Saint Antonio.
The historical heart of this village is divided by the street “Largo Martellotta” (which used to be called Largo delle Fogge) in two zones: “Rione Monti” and “Rione Aia Piccola”, both recognized as Italian National Monument in 1910 and 1930.
The trulli , limestone dwellings found in the southern region of Puglia, are remarkable examples of drywall (mortarless) construction, a prehistoric building technique still in use in this region. The trulli are made of roughly worked limestone boulders collected from neighbouring fields. Characteristically, they feature pyramidal, domed or conical roofs built up of corbelled limestone slabs.
