The Bisceglie tour begin among the main examples of religious architecture of the city: there is the Romanesque Cathedral, built between 1073 and 1295, which houses the relics of the patron saints of the city, such as S. Sergio S. Pantaleone and S. Vescovo Mauro. The Romanesque church of S. Margherita, built in 1197, preserves the only example in Italy of the Tombs of the Hawks. Then there is the Church of S. Adoneo, the oldest of all, built in 1074, and houses within it a precious baptismal font in Romanesque style. Finally, the Church of San Luigi, built on the ruins of the Temple of San Luigi, where Luigi I d’Angiò was buried. In the Bisceglie area there are numerous dolmens, such as the Dolmen Chianca, dating back to the Bronze Age, the Dolmen Frisari, the Dolmen dei Giano, located near the Temple of Janus, and the Dolmen Albarosa.

After the visit of an old oil mill with tasting of local products we will go to the city of Molfetta. We will see the Molfetta Cathedral and the diocesan museum. Molfetta plays an important role during the Middle Ages during this period that the commercial relationships increased with Venice, Amalfi, Greeks, Slavs and Dalmatians and became the leader in trade with the East. In fact, the passage of pilgrims to the Holy Land during the Crusades and their subsequent stop at the hospital of Santa Maria dei Martiri allowed the city to assume a certain importance in Europe. It was one of these numerous pilgrims, Corrado di Baviera, who fell in love with this land and remained there until his death, which became the patron saint of the city.
