Cortili aperti

This is the perfect event to discover the amazing architectures and hidden nature of the city.

For 20 years, thanks to the effort of the association Dimore Storiche, the heart of the baroque city becomes open to the public. For two days several antique residences, usually closed or inaccessible for citizens and tourists, are open to public.

Walking through the massive gates of wrought iron and the stunning arches in pietra leccese (typical stone of the area), the visitor is plunged into secret gardens, where each small detail becomes a unique surprise.

Walking through rare plants, unique sculptures and antique springs the atmosphere becomes magical with shows and small concerts. Visitors are guided from high school students.
