  • Duomo di Lecce - We will admire the double façade of this church, which spans the centuries from its appearance in the Middle Ages to its transformation in the Baroque era.

  • Palazzo Marrese - The elegant building is one of the most famous buildings in Lecce, especially for the refined facade that opens onto Piazzetta Falconieri, one of the most evocative views of the old city. The building is of considerable artistic importance due to the variety and richness of its architecture.

By examining the enchanting façade, with the help of the guide, we will find faces and strange animals carved on the Lecce stone, a symbol of the socio-cultural-economic-religious relationships that influenced the construction of the city of Lecce.
