Private Tour of Gravina in Puglia
When you're ready, we'll convene in Piazza Benedetto XIII to commence your private journey through Gravina in Puglia, a town beautifully positioned amidst stunning gorges. Are you prepared for an adventure?
We'll kick off our experience by visiting the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, a remarkable blend of architectural influences from late Romanesque, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. It’s intriguing to note that the cathedral faced devastating fires and a powerful earthquake that reshaped its history.
Our next stop will be the Church of Purgatorio, also recognized as the Church of Santa Maria del Suffragio. As we examine the façade, the two skeletons depicted on the tympanum above the entrance will catch our attention... The story behind these figures will be revealed during our tour!
Afterward, we will delve into the enchanting medieval quarters of Fondovico and Piaggio, the city’s oldest districts. Strolling through their narrow, winding streets, we will arrive at Gravina's rock church. Here, we will explore the impressive Church of San Michele, a sanctuary with origins predating Christianity, hewn from tuff and adorned with captivating Byzantine frescoes.
As we conclude our tour, we will traverse the Viadotto Madonna della Stella, an 18th-century bridge offering stunning views of the ravine below. Make sure to capture these beautiful vistas!
After an engaging two-hour exploration, our journey will come to a close as we bid farewell.
