Sous son ciel d'un bleu limpide, bordée de palais dorés, elle nous émerveille par les façades ouvragées de ses édifices et églises baroques, et par ses intérieurs qui s'animent dans une symphonie d'anges, de chérubins, de saints et de fleurs ! C'est un endroit magique, où le temps semble s'être arrêté !
Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Merveilleux exemple de place reconvertie en style baroque, elle s'ouvre devant nous comme une aile de théâtre, à gauche le magnifique clocher de la fin du XVIIe siècle construit par Giuseppe Zimbalo se détache sur la place avec son dôme en majolique ; au centre la cathédrale avec sa façade caractérisée par une balustrade dominée par la statue du protecteur de la ville, Sant'Oronzo, et ornée de fleurs, d'anges et de pointes lancéolées, sublime exemple de fanzaghesco baroque ; l'Épiscope au portique en propylées, œuvre admirable d'Emanuele Manieri ; à droite le Palazzo del Seminario avec sa rusticité et son baroque éclectique, œuvre de Giuseppe Cino. (Visite à l'extérieur)
Nous admirerons la vue sur l'ancien théâtre romain, de l'époque augustéenne, qui au cours des siècles avait été enterré pour être dévoilé par une fouille réalisée au XIXe siècle, un lieu évocateur entouré de jardins baroques qui encadrent les espaces ouverts des terrasses, l'orchestre, de l'avant - scène. (Visite à l'extérieur)
Cœur de la ville, l'ancienne Piazza dei Mercadanti du '700 retrouve encore les signes de son passé lié à l'influence de la République maritime de Venise, avec le Palazzo del Sedile, siège d'expositions et d'assemblées de la ville, et avec l'église attenante de Saint - Marc; la place flanque l'ancien amphithéâtre romain, à moitié dévoilé, un joyau parmi les palais baroques, art nouveau, rationalistes et vénitiens.
Chef-d'œuvre mondial de l'art baroque, sa sublime façade est dédiée à la bataille de Lépante, et représente le triomphe idéal du monde chrétien et d'Europe occidentale ; les décorations somptueuses et les nombreux symboles fascinent l'œil et élèvent encore aujourd'hui la spiritualité.

Lorenzo was an amazing tour guide who provided a knowledgeable and lively tour of Lecce. His art history background enabled Lorenzo to provide us with details about the remarkable history of Lecce. We also stopped for a Italian iced coffee and patry break compliments of Lorenzo. This was one of our best tours in 2 weeks in Italian.
Exploring the baroque beauty of Lecce is even better with a great guide. We loved our historic walking tour with Lorenzo—his deep knowledge of history and art, quick responses when booking, and wonderful sense of humour made the experience both engaging and fun. Over two hours, he brought Lecce’s symbol-rich baroque architecture to life, helping us see the city with new eyes. If you’re visiting Lecce, a walking tour with Lorenzo is a fantastic way to understand the stories behind this beautiful city.
Lorenzo was fantastic! We learned so much about Lecce and European history. Highly recommend this tour at the beginning of a visit.
Lorenzo was ver attentive and he guided even before we got to our actual tour.
We enjoyed a wonderful tour with Lorenzo. He is passionate and very knowledgeable about his home city of Lecce. His English is fantastic and his educational background in art and history made for a rich tour experience. He didn’t walk us all around from place to place, rather he focused on a few key sites and gave us a depth of information. His tour was more expensive than other options, but we were happy with the value we received.
Grazie mille! You're so kind, thank you really for the compliments and for joining the tour! Hugs from Lecce, Lorenzo
Lorenzo was a fantastic guide and brought Lecce and its beautiful style of baroque architecture to life. He was born here and his love of his home town shines through his excellent descriptions of each church and palace. He's such a warm and kind person, it was a pleasure to spend time with him. He showed me small gems I would have otherwise missed and shared many interesting stories and legends as well. Without Lorenzo I wouldn't have understood and enjoyed this lovely city nearly as much - If you have the opportunity to take a tour with Lorenzo do not hesitate, you'll be so glad that you did.
You never know when you book a guide as to whether or not the experience will be a good one. Our guide, Lorenzo, was beyond a good one. He was knowledgeable, personable, and gracious. He turned two hours into a treasured memory.
Lorenzo was not just informative but also warm and approachable, making the tour highly enjoyable. His insights into Lecce's history and culture left us with a profound appreciation for this beautiful city. I wholeheartedly rate this tour 5 out of 5 stars. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Lecce!
Lorenzo was fantastic! Knowledgeable, courteous and amiable. The tour was very worth it (and I’m not really a “tour” person)… had we not gone with Lorenzo, we wouldn’t have understood any of the rich history of Lecce. I highly recommend you spend a couple hours with Lorenzo!
We really enjoyed the tour of Lecce led by Lorenzo. He was engaging, informative and entertaining. We would not have appreciated the history and significance of the many wonderful buildings in the city without his guidance. And the coffee and pastry were delicious. Highly recommended.
