Visit Lecce

Why visit Lecce?

Come and lose yourself in the enchantment of the historic center of Lecce! This city is easily explored on foot, by scooter, by bike or by Segway. The exceptional state of conservation of the buildings takes us on a journey through time. Between the end of the 1500s and the first half of the 1700s, when, thanks to the ductility of local stone, the Lecce Baroque was born: facades, arcades, windows, balconies, loggias, columns and buildings decorated with human, plant and animal figures.
