Baia Verde Promenade, Gallipoli

Highlight (Segment) • Beach

Finally, the pedestrianized stretch of the Green Bay is returned to people and removed from the clutches of cars with obvious benefits to the area. We hope it will be maintained and enhanced to the fullest. Its enlargement is desirable.

Castle of Patù

Highlight • Castle

Posted in the Salento Fortifications collection komoot.it/collection/1396951/-salento-fortificazioni - The now disappeared Castello di Patù was located in the historic center of the town and dates back to the first half of the 15th century, therefore period of the transition from the Angevin to the Aragonese domination. The structure originally consisted of four curtains that joined as many corner towers, with a central parade ground. The whole was surrounded by a moat which over the years has been partly filled and partly transformed into a garden [source: lavocedimaruggio.it/wp/fortezze-e-castelli-di-puglia-il-distrutto- patu-castle.html]

Posted in Salento Fortifications collection komoot.it/collection/1396951/-salento-fortificazioni - The church of San Giovanni erected in the 10th century is made of slabs from the ancient Vereto. Mausoleum "Cento Pietre" (it seems to have always been waiting for us) of the ninth century, originally made up of one hundred megaliths (now they are 99 if you have the patience to count them), the sepulchral mausoleum was erected in memory of the General baron Geminiano, messenger of peace slaughtered by the Saracens just before the battle of Campo Rè in Vereto
