What you can expect

The tour starts with an external visit to the majestic Santa Croce Church, the jewel in the crown of Lecce’s Baroque architecture. From here, explore the nearby Piazza Sant’Oronzo, the former market square where you can find the Old Town Hall, the Roman Column, and the remains of a huge Roman amphitheatre.

Continue the tour with a walk through Corso Vittorio Emanuele, which boasts stunning Baroque palaces and the recently restored Sant’Irene Church. Arrive at the breathtaking Piazza Duomo next, one of the most critically praised architectural ensembles in Italy. Admire the exteriors of the Archbishop’s Residence, the Seminary, the Bell Tower, and the cathedral.

Finally, visit the underground Jewish Museum and discover the town’s fascinating Jewish history.
