Houses and homes in Locorotondo - key information
Locorotondo is laid out in concentric circles on its hillside overlooking a valley blanketed with vineyards.
Information about Locorotondo
Locorotondo is located in the heart of the Itria Valley. The town rises on a hill, located at 410 meters above sea level, which is part of the South-Eastern branch of the uneven plateau with hills called Murgia, commonly known as the Murgia of the Trulli, for the high concentration of these typical and characteristic rural dwellings. Locorotondo is located 12 km from the beaches of Torre Canne di Fasano.
Locorotondo is laid out in concentric circles on its hillside overlooking a valley blanketed with vineyards. Still farther on is the local jewel, Martina Franca, a baroque town whose Palazzo Ducale is the only building in southern Italy attributed to the great Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The church of San Martino is also a jewel. More delightfully picturesque whitewashed hill towns abound, notably Cisternino and Ostuni, a shimmering mirage set on three hilltops. Its white walls, wrought-iron balconies and turquoise shutters will delight the eye of anyone who loves Greece.
