Alberobello was once a forestry area that was filled with beautiful oaks and beech trees. Due to its fertile soil and agricultural landscape, soon it was used for agricultural activities and a little settlement began to appear.
During this 1.5-hour guided walking tour, your guide will re-hatch the history of how Alberobello was discovered and from whence the community came about. As you learn of the history of Alberobello, do not miss out on the folklore traditions. We will also take you to the only trullo form the Trullo Church of Sant'Antonio.
Trullo was first thought to have existed in the prehistoric time. However, the oldest trullo is in Alberobello, dating back to the 14th century. These white-washed cone-shaped roofs are a wonder to behold.
Its limestone construction has made these ancient houses a cool place to live in during the summer and provides heat during the winter time. As your guide shows you the construction techniques of a trullo, learn its status symbol.
