Itinerary
Basilica of Saint Nicholas is an important pilgrimage destination both for Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians and one of the most important attraction
The cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Bari-Bitonto, dedicated to Saint Sabinus, a bishop of Canosa, whose relics were brought here in the 9th century. Here you will appreciate underground roman walls named Succorpo.
The Norman Swebian Castle hosts the collection of plaster casts and temporary art exhibitions.
Piazza Ferrarese has always been one of the access points to the old town which, with its narrow streets, alleys and small openings, extends from Piazza Ferrarese - Piazza Mercantile up to the Normanno -Svevo castle. During recent restoration, which involved not only the square but also the surrounding buildings, a short stretch of the ancient Via Appia – Traiana came to light, built by the Romans in the early second century A.D.
The piazza has always represented the heart of commercial and administrative activities in the city due to the presence of the city market (not currently in this area) and of the palazzo Sedile, which is the historical reference point of Bari city Hall. Today, for the citizens of Bari it is an irreplaceable meeting point.

My husband and I went on a walking cultural tour of Bari visiting several piazzas and churches including the beautiful Cathedrale of San Nicola. Alessia was lovely and very knowledgeable and we learnt so much about the history of this beautiful city. Afterwards we did a pasta experience with Anna and Mariella they were lovely. We made orichiette with Mariella, she was very patient with us. Then she served orichiette with tomato sugo and Primitivo wine to us. Delicious.
An informative tour round the old town with wonderful pasta lesson to finish. Barbara was an excellent guide
