Alberobello

Alberobello is one of three cities in Apulia which is on the UNESCO world-heritage-list. Alberobello is situated some twenty kilometres south-east of Monopoli, over the hill 300 meters above sea-level in the charming valle d'Itria. In Alberobello large areas are habituated by the trullis, small igloo-like stone houses alongside contorted cobble stone roads, climbing the hillside. 

Today the town Alberobello is situated on two hills, originally separated by a river. The modern part is situated on the east-side and on the western hill lies the old habitat from the 16-hundreds with the trullis.
