Charming Hotels, Agritourism and B&B in "Canosa di Puglia"

Canosa di Puglia is situated in Barletta-Andria-Trani district, on the Murge, in Puglia.

 

This town has ancient origins and many archaeological remains were found in the area and now are stored in local museums and around the world. The Archaeological Park of San Leucio houses artifacts found in the surrounding area, many of which date back to Ancient Greece, discovered through various excavations carried out by the University of Rome, Bari and Foggia.

 

Among the churches of Canosa, the most important is the Basilica of St. Sabino, built in the seventh century and dedicated to St. Sabino in 1101 when the saint’s remains were transferred to the crypt. One of the chapels of the church houses the treasure of the saint, with its relics, some chalices, crucifixes and the bust of St Sabino in silver.

 

From the Basilica you can reach the Mausoleum of Boemondo I of Antioch, dating back to 1111, whose bronze doors are now kept inside the basilica. The mausoleum houses the tomb of Boemondo, marked by a marble slab on the floor.

 

Walking through the old town centre of Canosa di Puglia we can admire various palaces built between 700 and 800, including the Sinesi Palace, seat of the Canosina Archaeological Foundation and used to organize exhibitions and cultural events, while the Fracchiolla Palace houses the Early Christian Museum of the Cathedral, that is in fact part of the heritage of the Basilica of St Sabino and contains medieval artefacts including various documents and manuscripts and a precious collection of coins.
