So, are you ready to explore Bari?
Go to the first station (Lungomare) or start wherever you like.
The theater was designed by the engineer Angelo Cicciomessere (later Angelo Messeni). Its construction was commissioned by the Petruzzelli family.
Palazzo Mincuzzi was constructed in 1928, during a period of economic growth and urban development in Bari. The palace was originally built as a department store for the Mincuzzi family, who were prominent merchants in Bari.
Palazzo del Governo served as the seat of government administration in Bari during various historical periods. It was originally built in the early 20th century to house the provincial government offices.
The Gipsoteca is housed within Castello Svevo, also known as the Swabian Castle. This medieval fortress dates back to the 12th century and has served various purposes over the centuries.
The cathedral is dedicated to Saint Sabinus of Canosa, a bishop of Canosa di Puglia in the 4th century, whose relics were brought to Bari to protect the city from Saracen invasions.
The basilica was built in the 11th century to house the relics of Saint Nicholas, the 4th-century bishop of Myra (in modern-day Turkey), who is revered as Saint Nicholas of Bari. The transfer of his relics to Bari in 1087 brought significant religious prestige to the city.
Piazza Mercantile dates back to the Middle Ages and has been a central hub of commercial and civic activity in Bari since its inception. It was originally the main marketplace and trading center of the city.
