I Trulli di Alberobello - World Heritage Site
The trulli of Alberobello in Puglia are famous all over the world, a UNESCO heritage site since 1996. Their charm is linked to a mysterious origin, an esoteric symbology and an incredibly current eco-sustainable architecture.
Trullo Sovrano
The largest trullo in the town is called Trullo Sovrano. This two-storey building is used as a museum and it is possible to visit the interior, furnished according to the taste of the period, reconstructed through the testimonies of the older inhabitants of Alberobello. Trullo Sovrano is located in the northern part of Alberobello, behind the Church of Santi Medici Cosma e Damiano. It represents the only trullo to have a raised floor, reachable from the inside via a masonry staircase, among the first to be built with mortar.
