Bari

Benvenuto a Bari! Place of pilgrimage for countless pilgrims who commemorate the patron saint of sailors, travelling merchants and children in the Basilica of San Nicola. An absolute must also for us feel-good cruise passengers. Castel del Monte is just a few kilometres from the city centre. An imposing octagonal building whose special architecture still puzzles us today about the function of the castle. Was a great treasure stored here? Does the building symbolise a stone crown? Or was it simply a hunting lodge? Perhaps you will find out!
