Lecce, the baroque heart of Southern Italy, is a jewel nestled in the region of Puglia. Known as the "Florence of the South," this city is a celebration of art, history, and culture. As you stroll through its streets, you are enchanted by the carved facades of the Basilica of Santa Croce and the Cathedral of Lecce, masterpieces that tell stories of faith and artistic mastery. Museums, such as the MUST (Historical Museum of the City of Lecce), offer a journey through time among archaeological finds and artworks that narrate the cultural richness of Lecce.
Contemporary art galleries, like the Francisca Art Gallery, are dynamic spaces where modern art engages in dialogue with the baroque legacy. The Roman amphitheater, a silent witness to a glorious past, reveals itself in all its majesty, while the Castle of Charles V holds stories of conquests and defense.
Lecce is an open-air stage, where every stone and every sculpture tells of the passion of the artists who have shaped its identity. A trip to Lecce is a deep dive into art, an experience that leaves a mark on the soul of the visitor.
