Located in the Itria Valley and the Murgia of the Trulli, the town is famous for its trulli, dry-stone constructions in limestone typical of the 17th–18th centuries. On December 6, 1996, UNESCO listed them as a World Heritage Site. The name derives from the 1481 document «Silva Alborelli», while a local tradition links it to "Silva alboris belli" (forest of the war tree), an unconfirmed hypothesis by historical sources. The history of Alberobello began with the agricultural reclamation of the 16th century, initiated by Count Andrea Matteo III Acquaviva d'Aragona of Conversano, who settled forty peasant families there. The privilege to build with dry-stone walls, imposed by the count to evade Spanish taxes, gave rise to the characteristic trulli. The town became a royal city on May 27, 1797, freeing itself from feudalism. ### Walking Itinerary and What to See: Art, Alleys, and Monuments **Morning** - Start from *Piazza Giuseppe Martelotta* to admire the **Trullo Sovrano**, the only two-story trullo open to the public. - Walk along *Via Monte Chiuso* to discover trulli decorated with the famous *cimeli* (dry-stone conical stones). - Visit the **Mother Church – Basilica of Saints Cosma and Damian**, consecrated to the Immaculate Conception in 1854. **Afternoon** - Excursion to the **Alberobello Territory Museum**, part of the network of museums of the Apulian peasant civilization (opening in 2026). - Free time in *Rione Monti*, the heart of the residential trulli, ideal for buying local crafts. - Taste traditional products at one of the *historic cafés* in the center. **Panoramic Sunset** - Reach **Largo Giuseppe Martelotta** for a panoramic view of the trulli illuminated by the setting sun. - If the season allows, participate in the *living nativity scenes* organized by the municipality during the holiday period (dates and times available on the municipal website). ### Excursions and Villages within 15 km Alberobello is strategically positioned to explore other gems of the Itria Valley: - **Locorotondo (8.2 km)**: circular village with white architecture and excellent orecchiette. - **Noci (9.2 km)**: medieval historic center with the Church of San Giovanni Battista. - **Fasano (11.7 km)**: starting point for the *Terra di Bari Natural Park* (not a national protected park, but a green area). - **Putignano (12.2 km)**: known for Italy’s oldest carnival. - **Martina Franca (12.3 km)**: charming Baroque city with the famous *Palazzo Ducale*. ### Where to Stay in Alberobello: In the Village or in the Countryside The municipality has 308 accommodation facilities, of which 151 comply with the National (CIN) or Regional (CIR) Identification Code.
